Palmer Route Free

Palmer Route

South Chimney

The route originally had one aid bolt to surmount a bulge low on the climb, and it goes up a 5.7 face above to a bolt on top. I recall working on free climbing the route in the 1970s at about 5.11.

This climb follows an offwidth crack to a ledge. Then go up a chimney to natural anchors. It has good friction on crystalline rock.
