Description 

Jam and grovel your way up the double cracks using hand and fist jams and even butt jams to gain a rest ledge on the right.... Climb back to the left and place your big cam then fire the last few feet....

A fun, beginner climb good for getting folks to think outside of the box....

Location 

Walk left along the cliff from Obscene Phone Call (5.8).... A short distance along look for an alcove with a double crack in a corner.... The cracks start from a ledge that is easy to access, you climb the two cracks to a short, off-width section to the top....

Protection 

A few wide cams #3 and #3.5 Camalots are nice and an OW piece as well, #5 maybe....

Easily top-roped from trees.
