Description 

Although this is really just a variation to MCPSAES, it is SO different in nature and difficulty from that route, I thought it could use its own separate description. Left of the standard finishes to the Syringe is an obvious wide crack through a roof. This is The Pit...and the Pit is hard. Not your run-of-the-mill 5.9.


Location 

20 or 30 feet right of the Syringes' standard finishes. The wide roof crack.


Protection 

I didn't use anything bigger than a #3 Camalot, but something bigger would fit. It pretty much tops out on the summit.
