Description
Strenuous, possibly painful hand jamming out the crack in the center of the big roof leads to easier crack climbing above. The roof, and the rest of the climb, protect well with hand-size cams. The crux is getting your feet up and around the lip of the roof.
Location
This route follows the hand crack in the center of the huge, obvious roof on the right side of the main wall. Shown as route number 25 on the Overlook route topo photo.
Protection
2 ea #1 and #2 camalots is recommended; 1 #3 camalot. Maybe 1 ea. 0.3-0.75 camalot for the significantly easier sections of climbing.
A few slings to extend gear below the roof and for the anchor (just bolt hangers, no chain, pick up your anchor on your walk back to your ca).
Tape is recommended.
