Description
“Fissure Brown” is a mixed route combining sparse fixed protection with the need for natural gear placements.
It follows a vertical slab and crack, offering beautiful technical climbing on clean rock.
The first half is relatively easy (5b–5c), while the upper section becomes more demanding, with continuous 6a movement.
The three existing bolts are placed at the cruxes, and the belay is solid but without a ring.
It’s a route that requires good gear management and experience with traditional protection placements.
