Exasperator 5.10c ***1/2
It's a bit of a steep haul to the base of The Grand. There'll
be no question as to when you're there though, and within seconds
you will find yourself looking at a fantastic thin-hands crack
that splits an otherwise flawless granite face. Climb it in two
pitches (10a, 10c; 2 ropes to rap!)
My first experience with this route was on a cold day in November.
My fingers nearly froze to the stone, and the route kicked my
ass, but it's okay to have one's ass kicked by a mega classique.
