Overview
FA: Greg Barnes, Florence Scholl, 8/08.

Narsil starts from the upper ledge about 30 feet above the start ledge for Anduril. Thin cams plus a belay bolt provide the anchor. Climb right, then follow bolts and thin cracks up a sustained face to the crux moves past the last bolt to gain the roof with a fixed nut, and a final pumpy lieback past the roof to easy terrain and the anchor. The FA team intends to continue the route higher. Several pro bolts are currently ¼” with small custom hangers. Rap with a single 60m rope.
