Route description

Naja West Face

najaWestTopo

not recommended, Start 200 feet left of Gruffalumps, left of black/orange blocks but still on west face,
P1 5th up to base of OW, 60m
P2 5.11 slightly overhanging OW, chicken wings and fists, 4 and 5 cams, up to small cave, 25m
P3 5.10 OW, difficulty is getting out of cave, 25m
P4 5.8 Double jam up and left, 30m
P5 5.9 Crumbly fingers, then left on ledge around boulder, 30m
P6 5.7 Up and right through huge heucos,45m
P7 5.9R Direct line up super sketchy rotten rock, bad pro. We set up 3 sling rap stations to descend into gully to the left. The ledge from which to start Jamel Bahr can be accessed directly from the shelf below via a beautiful 30m 5.8 hand crack, led by Kyle Duba (belayed by Kyle Elmquist), which he named the “Incredible Camel Crack.” From the top of ICC, go left, horizontally, 100 feet, to the left side of the black/orange blocks, to scramble up the first 5th class pitch of Jamel Bahr
