Proposed Route:

This route is short but sweet. More powerful than it’s neighbor, Clean Sweep, this new proposal would be a fun addition to “The Broom.” Easy moves lead to the first clip and the first crux. Steep and awkward moves follow seams up a steep tilted arete. The seams look like they should have gear placements, but they don’t!

Name Meaning:

We named this formation “The Broom” after a dust broom found on the summit. This name “Done and Dusted” is keeping with the broom theme, but it is also a phrase from a book called Barbarian Days, by William Finnigan.
