Description Climb steep splitter thin hands off the ground to good stemming out left. The crack widens from hands to fists and trends left into a small right facing corner with interesting face features. Pull a corner change and the crack narrows from hands to fingers with an offwidth pod at the top. Could be a bit harder for shorter folks.
Location Far left side of Selfish Wall, ~10 minutes walk left from Hand Solo.
Protection 0.75"-4.0". Chain anchor, shares anchors with Ego.

| Watch out for the pile of gravel held in place by a chockstone just after the topout.
Also, be aware that the entire ground surface around Ego and Id is a fresh loose talus cone, and these two routes appear to be at the base of a big rockslide chute. Little vegetation, and no lichen, suggest there was a very recent rockfall from up high (recent, on the geological time scale). Who knows when the next one will slide? |
