Description 

This fractured offwidth crack is about 40+ feet long and lies on the steep northeast side of Wheelbarrow Rock. Near the top, it angles right and is more hand to fist size.

The formation and the route were named for Tucker Tech's new training regiment...Wheelbarrowing, soon to be the rage at a gym near you.


Protection 

We came unprepared for a crack of this size, but with several large (4-5+) pieces and a couple 2-3 inch cams, you could adequately protect on the lead. Alternatively, climb Plantismal and use the rap bolts to set up a TR on this route.
