Description 

A fun climb that has you switching between jams, face holds and stemming. A little bit of everything and really good for a short 5.7. New leaders may find it feels committing for 5.7, but it protects well.

Location 

Back Tree Crack is on the Secondary Face. Go around the main face, cross the hollow, and 100 ft. to the west you'll find the Secondary Face, which holds five 11-ish bolted routes and five or six good gear climbs.
On the far right side is an obvious right leaning hand crack- this is Back Tree Crack.

Protection 

gear to 3". 2 bolts with hangers at the top. webbing or slings needed for TR. easy walk-off.
