Description 

As long as RJ Gold is in here, I might as well add this one. The relevant information from me is that Loweballs, which I don't ordinarily find myself carrying for free climbs, work great in the crux bottom section. I was actually able to boulder up, stick in the red one (medium-sized), return to the ground, and bounce-test it like you do when climbing on aid gear. It held. I sent. Not that bad. Enjoy!

Easier than the Crack-A-Go-Go, if that tells you anything.

Location 

The undernourished fissure between the big flake/wing of Jefferson Airplane and RJ Gold, left of the Bolt Pinnacle.

Protection 

Techy little stuff.
