Description Suggest change

Previously called "The Original Route" this stunning corner crack will test all of your skills and take all of your gear. Layback, stem, face climb, and jam your way up to the crux at the very end. Good steming just before the top will allow you to work out the cruxy overhanging moves to get up over the lip and to the chains.

p1. Climb the obvious splitter corner crack to chains at the top.

p2 (highly recommended). Go up the dirty right facing corner above the anchors with some exposure to a fun cruxy (11-) right facing corner against a flake, after the crux continue up the thin right facing corner until the finger/tips crack ends and leaves you with a thin tips/fingers horizontal crack out left that seems to go to nowhere(10+). Trust that this crack continues and follow it as it peters out to a slab with one bolt and continue navigating your way until you feel like your running out of rope and top out the feature.

Location Suggest change

This route follows up the main corner crack in the left facing dihedral of the wall.

Protection Suggest change

The route will take gear to 3", but gear to 2" will probably suffice. Bring lots of gear because this route is long with extra finger size pieces needed for the end.
