Open in Better Beta

Freerider is the Astroman of the new millennium. This route is climbing at its finest. The route follows complex crack systems up the southwest face of El Capitan. Essentially it is the Salathe wall with a few variations used (pioneered by Alex Huber) to avoid the numerous 5.13 crux pitches first freed by Paul Piana and Todd Skinner in the mid 80's.

Better Beta is in TestFlight and internal testing. It holds the topo, the beta and your send log, works at the crag with no signal, and syncs when you're back. Leave your email and we'll send an invite.
