This route has access issues. Please read the note available on the Granite Mountain page.

Description 

Below the Sorcerer corner is a right arching flake 1 pitch off the ground. To access, climb the first pitch of Witblitz to belay at base of crack (easy 5th class). Wide lie backing leads to much more serious under-clinging (Lynn Hill had pre-placed placed bongs for Largo's ascent). Steve Byrne had said "if you run out the last 35 feet it is only 5.11+"


Location 

Center of Granite Mountain, below the obvious Sorcerer streaked corner. Descend rappelling from Sorcerer's belay


Protection 

2"-5", the more the merrier
