Description 

Short hand crack with high feet and good hand jams to begin. Throw a jam over the constriction and you're home free after a few fist jams up top. Painful knee jam optional.

Location 

On the south side of the Nautilus, under the parabolic slab rappel and just to the left of Blood Sport. Lots of gear anchor options for TR.

Protection 

Takes BD #0.75 to a #4 up top. A BD #1 fits perfectly just below constriction.
