BETA PHOTO: Black September as seen from the approach

Description 

This is an outstanding vertical handcrack, that leans slightly to the right. Scramble up an unprotected 5.0 ramp for 30' to the base of the crack. A couple fingers to tight hands moves leads into perfect hands glory for another 80'. Ample gear and abundant face holds. A striking line.

Location 

Located near the far right side of the Black wall. Left of Rated X but right of the lightning bolt roof. Hard to miss this perfect crack from the ground.

Protection 

Standard rack, emphasis on hand sized pieces. Gear belay, but you can rap off the nearby Summer Breeze bolted anchor w/60m rope and some easy downscrambling.
