Fathom Direct

Amazing, sustained face climbing. Rock steepens as you get higher, but it becomes a little more featured. End on fathom after headwall. I did the first pitch of begoon-offenbacher rather than the original first pitch of fathom direct (so this is what i am describing below).

P1: follow slabby face up past a few bolts and a couple of gear placements up high to anchors, 5.10-

P2: follow dike up and right past a couple bolts and then go up to another anchor

P3-P4: wander up water groove looking for pro

P5: The wall steepens a little and this is some sweet climbing

P6-P8: finish on fathom

Look for water groove that intersects with the fathom headwall 500 feet up. Start climbing the bolted line in groove to the left for one variation or for the original variation, start uphill and left .

up to #2 camalot. tricams were helpful in at least one spot. Some key nut placements. Few placements on most pitches. Double bolt anchors at the top of each pitch. I gave it an R because tricky moves are often poorly protected and a fall on the runout, featured terrain could be very nasty.
