Description 

Nice crack through rough rock. On the wide hands side. Link this up with Crack of Dust. In fact, you could probably climb them as one long pitch if you mind the gear right.

After you get up this consider setting a TR on Cave Crack off of the bolted anchor (climber's left) for Never Intended. Cave Crack is an old-school 5.9 chimney. It starts just left of the Crack of Dust anchor. Great Steck-Salathe training!


Location 

Basically a second pitch of Crack of Dust but much less slick. Climb the crack to the right of the anchor.


Protection 

Cams, hand to wide hand size. Gear anchor. Walk off way left toward The Blocks.
