Description 

This is the obvious crack directy behind the Iceberg Boulder. It goes up and right before heading over a wide roof on a striped rock.

I first jumped on it around 1990, but only did the roof section this past weekend. I heard that someone named Finley may have done this sometime in the '80s.


Protection 

Good gear the whole way. Wide in sections (up to 5") of the roof; be wary of rope drag.

FA: R. Finley mid 80's A great route that somehow never made it into a guidebook. Strenuous climbing on beautiful rock. It's possible to exit early and avoid the roof which makes this about 5.10c/d.
