Description 

This enjoyable trad climb on solid brown rock begins in a very thin crack about 30' up from Captain Kronos. The crack becomes progressively wider after going over a small roof. Pro is bomber and easy to place.


Protection 

Small to medium stoppers, small to medium TCU's and a few cams to 3.5". Small to medium TCU's or cams for an anchor. Walk off to the south (towards Sports Challenge Rock) for the descent.

A fun route with great jamming on solid varnish. Good pro, a nice sunny exposure and a casual walk to approach.

Don't traverse all the way left under the route. Found it to be a little harder than anticipated. Keep aiming straight up from the initial seam.

This is one pumpy little devil! Don't make the mistake I did trying to fiddle gear in at the roof. Just stand up a little higher and you can get in a bomber nut. Unfortunately, there are a few loose blocks in the crack up higher that you might want to pro behind.

Great climb. 10b, but pumpy for the grade IMO.
