Description
This prominent chimney is near the left end of the Buttress of Cracks.
The first pitch (5.7) is a steep, well-protected chimney with a crux overhang at the top.
The second pitch (5.6) follows another chimney directly above the belay ledge and is possible to combine with the first pitch.
- It finishes at a two bolt anchor near the top of the buttress, allowing you to scramble off or rappel.
