Description 

31 meters in length, having a 70 is still not a bad idea with distance to tree anchors.

While the base of this classic can be obscured from view along the base trail (unlike the more obvious neighboring Pledge Allegiance), there is a window view of the mid-pitch roof and crack. A great climb that had been top-roped previous to Lee's Fa, as it stands out. Stemming, chimneying, fingery cruxing route has it all

Location 

Pledge Crack Area, uphill and climbers right of the more obvious Pledge Allegiance. On the trail a large tree and landing below these two routes will stand-out. Be wary, this landing has also hosted massive ant colonies in the past and have been known to engulf belayers packs etc...
