BETA PHOTO: Long crack in the middle of the picture.

Description 

A really fun route on the looker's left end of Sven Slab. It's an obvious right leaning crack going up the left wall of a gully. Longer than it looks. A very enjoyable pitch, with a crux or two, bomber gear, great easy crack climb. Belay from a tree on a big ledge. A guidebook described a 2nd, pitch, it didn't look worth doing. A quick scramble up and to the right puts you on the ridge and a nice summit. Walk climber's left from the ledge and scramble back to the base to get down.

Location 

The last clean rock on the far left hand side of Sven slab.

Protection 

Gear through hands. Be aware you need to place a fair amount of gear to protect from swinging into the gully.
