Description 

This route climbs up a crack system on the mid- left side, and is the crack just left of the dihedral to roof route called Snake Byte (5.11b). It can be indentified as a single crack on the ground, which turns into a system of two cracks about 20 feet off the ground, and then turns into a 3 crack system about 40 feet up.

The crux is either the lower crack, or the middle double crack section, depending on how big your hands are.

All protection is solid on this route, and there is almost always a good lock just where you need it.


Protection 

Gear to 1 1/2" in the bottom 2/3 of the route, and anything goes up top.

Great route with good gear. A nice warmup for Rawhide.

Good route, maybe a tad soft for .10b...?
