Description Climb a somewhat chanenging bouldery start to gain the crack then with hands in the crack and feet mostly on the face make your way up and to the left... Eventually making a mantel move on to the top...
The gear can be a little tricky but its all there once you get past the starting moves...
I think this route is better to lead than TR due to its traversing nature...
Location A bit left of The Horn(5.9) look for a left leaning crack starting behind a small boulder...
Protection Regular rack, maybe some tri-cams would be nice...

| The direct start in the crack goes at 5.10. Starting 6' left on the slab is the 5.7 start, although as a lead it's unprotected until you reach the crack. |

| The flake above the slab start is not long for this world. I pulled two cams out of it in a fall. It expanded and the right side cracked. Don't trust it. |

| I'm pretty sure I felt that flake move on me. The crack is fun but the top out is a bit of a reach if you're only 5'7" like me. Cool spot. |
