Description 

SDS under the roof as far back as you can go and match hands where the horizontal roof crack widens to a sidepull/undercling. Follow crack out of roof and match on nice hold at lip; heel hook and reach up for sloping lip. Follow sloping lip up and to the right. Mantle up to large hold and top out. Super fun moves and awesome problem!! Named after Squamish's Crackhead due to similarity but smaller and tougher.

Location 

In west forest parking lot walk about 20 meters and then straight up. On the same boulder as Levitation but on the southeast face.

Protection 

Couple of pads and a spotter.
