New Route on Yosemite’s Broderick

Yosemite is one of the world’s most popular climbing destinations, but there remains a number of unclimbed routes.

Brandon Adams and Alec Zachreson have added Thugz Mansion 5.10b A2 and Voodoo Child variation to the south wall of Broderick.

To find the route, approach up mist trail and take the climber’s trail across the base of Liberty Cap into Hidden Valley. Just as you enter the valley between Broderick and Liberty Cap, look for a roof marking the start of route.
