Description You'll find this route 150' or so to the left of "King Otto's Castle". It's an obvious left leaning crack. Your stomach sould be empty before you head up. I had difficulty getting decent pro in to start. A tri-cam finally worked. Back up whatever you place; getting started will get your attention; and it doesn't let up.

| There is a nice "ledge" about 2/3 of the way up. However, it isn't as big as it looks from the ground even though it will give you a break. A bomber belay can be built at the top. I liked this route a lot. Kevin Currigan |

| great route. The start is a bit run out, but stick with it. A bit stout for the grade. |

| I soloed the crack about 40ft right of this route thinking it was Don Genaro Crack. Any idea what it is? Felt about 5.8, 5.8+ |

| A great diagonal crack with good jams and lieback moves. I used face features at the crux. Well worth your time. |
