Freerider5.13a

A long free route on El Capitan, Freerider threads cracks and steep face sections over roughly 30 pitches and about 1,000 meters of vertical rock. The route’s sustained moderate-hard pitches require efficient crack technique, route-finding, and multi-day wall strategy when climbed in a single push. Freerider is notable as a standard modern free line on El Capitan that combines sustained technical climbing and the logistical demands of big-wall ascents, often resulting in multi-day efforts to link the full route free.
