Subject: Loh Roof
Rating: V8
Quality: 3 stars
Location: Black Mountain
Notes: Ludicrous throw

First Ascented by Greg Loh, the Loh Roof is a pretty impressive line, with some whack moves on it. The problem starts at a horizontal rail under the roof, which can be traversed in from the right for extra moves, if desired. Make your way out the roof on some powerful shouldery moves. Then wing an all out dyno for a bucket at the lip, followed with ridiculous swinging around as you try to stabilize. From there, a somewhat bizarre mantel finishes the problem.
