Description 

Take the wide crack system to the wedged flake and lieback to the top. It is a pretty good beginner lead with a crux near the top.

Protection 

Large hexes and cams and a few medium stoppers--bring a large sling for protecting the last move before topping out. There is a new bolt to belay from on top.
