Description 

If you like physical hand and fist cracks, this is for you. The overhang is the crux (as you'd expect); footholds on the face keep it from being 5.11 The chimney above the overhang is tight but easy.

Location 

This is near the right end of the wall. A recessed hand jam goes up over an overhang and into a chimney above.

Protection 

Hand and fist size gear, plus a few other pieces
