Description 

This climbs the right-facing large crack, just right of the 2 bolted lines on the west end of the wall. Steep hand and fist crack. With a good fist jam to pop the crux. Nice climb.


Protection 

2 bolts for the anchors up top, and large gear for the route.

I used mostly large gear for the lead, but I used two small TCUs. There is a good nut placement for the start. After the overhanging sections, the crack becomes a 4th class scramble to the ledge. You can keep it more interesting by climbing the face above and pulling over the lip.
