Description:

Pull up onto the small, wobbly pedistal,protect in the crack, continue up on incut crimps and thin laybacks. this line is sustained with limited but good pro. The top 1/3 can't be protected but by then you are climbing on jugs. even so, if you fall, you risk decking. A common approach to Gibbet is via "Hawk", 14.

Descent Options:

Walk off
