Description 

There are many good finger cracks around the Royal Arches area. This is one of them: In a right facing corner is a clean, straight in, thin finger tip crack. Climb this crack with good quality granite 90 ft. to a dirty/bushy ledge. The quality quickly deteriorates just before reaching the ledge at the top. Like many of the other cracks in the area, this pitch is good for climbers just breaking into the grade.

Location 

This climb is left of the start to the Royal Arches and right of Peruvian Flake.

Protection 

Rack up with thin pro to 2". Rappel from slings around bushes.
