Description 

Splitter hand crack for first 15 feet, crack becomes featured for another 15 feet, last 10 feet is the crux flared, splitter finger crack.

There is a second pitch directly above this route that ends with two offwidth roof cracks, I think the first one goes at .11b and the second at .11c.
There is a bolted anchor on the face above each roof.


Location 

Mostly straight in crack climbing on crack a few feet to the right of the corner. Dihedral wall and corner crack to your left are off.


Protection 

single set cams .3-2 and a set of small-med. nuts. Bolted anchor at top.

Top 10-15 feet are the crux. One or two tricky moves in the flared, off fingers crack, find a good lock before you pump out.

Bottom is probably 5.9'ish.

This is a great crack, the upper flared fingers are pumpy. The 5.11 crack just to the right (another God of Thunder variation) is absolutely stellar!
