Since there is no description for this excellent piece of rock, I will provide one:

About 20 feet right of the "right wing" climb up and through a small roof. The opening moves are easier if you are taller, and protect with small gear. Follow the broken crack to the summit, it protects well after a spicey start. Oh, and large gear is not required, but I guess you can haul it up if you like. Cams to 2"ll do ya.

Top notch 5.8 with consistent technical moves for the first 3/4 of its length.
