Forbidden Fruit

Ballet and burl, Forbidden Fruit has some of the best steep slab climbing in the Poudre followed by a powerful roof. Fancy footwork is the key to the crux.

P1. 5.11: scramble up and left to a ledge with a belay bolt. Climb straight up the steepening face past the somewhat height-dependent crux, then turn the roof (5.11) at its apex utilizing a hidden sidepull under the roof. Move right to an easy arete leading to the anchors.

This is the leftmost line on the cliff.

Eleven bolts. Take a long sling for the bolt under the roof.
