Description 

Pitch 1: 5.10 150ft. Start off climbing broken ledges and flakes. Climb a short offwidth with a hidden finger/hand crack to a ledge. Continue up to a roof which is passed via hands, and finish up a nice, tight, hand crack to a ledge.

Pitch 2: 5.8 50ft. Continue up the crack with fingers, and finish up a short, wide crack to the top.


Location 

Located about 20 feet left of Renaissance. Starts just left of a deep chimney. Locate the nice hand crack through a roof up high and follow the line down to locate the start.

Descend via the rappel above Renaissance.
