Max Barlerin, Quinn Brett and Michael Lukens climbed a mega line in the south face of Fitz Roy. It climbs a splitter-as-can-be crack system to the right of The Washington Route. In the central section, four pitches follow a lone crack that splits a massive blank granite headwall. In all it climbs 13 pitches, 10 quite vertical, the following three wandering up blocky terrain to join the summit slopes. They freed the route which goes at 6c+ (5.11c).
