unknown climber leading the beautifulo classic 5.7...


Description 

This really good route climbs the nice looking finger and thin hands crack left of Hough's Crack on the north face of the breadloaves. Probably one of the most popular routes at the City, and with good reason.

Climb the obvious steep and lovely crack - easier than it appears. Chickenheads abound on the upper section.


Protection 

Stoppers, red alien sized cams are nice, hand sized pieces are useful for building an anchor.

Do what Steve says and climb the next face to the top following the same eroded dike that you climbed on the first face. A 70 meter rope will get you down from the chains. Great beginner crack climb as the stances are everywhere.

Near the top of the crack on the 1st pitch, it is possible to climb runout patina jugs on the right for 30ft to the top.
