Description
The name of this route really says it all. A rare beautiful crack that offers some exciting moves over gear. Don't worry though, there is still enough runout slab climbing to prevent you from thinking you are any where else.
Start at the base of the left leaning crack. Climb the crack for about 30 feet then step right onto waves in the rock. Clip 2 bolts on your way out right, then make a step over a bulge and gain ground to the belay. 5.9+, 90'
P2 Start up and head left, locate a bolt and keep moving until you hit a terrace. 5.9 120'
P3 Head up to the second terrace. Can't remember if there is a bolt or not. 5.8 100'
From the belay, continue up for another 160' or so until you are able to reach the trees.
