Description 

Friction-walk or lieback your way up the right-leaning ramp to the base of the the corner. Work your way up the slowly tapering 3" crack for 15' to the top. Short burly climb, but really fun. Crux is based on hand-size. If anyone knows the name to this one please correct it. I've been unable to locate any beta on this one.

Location 

Start this route on the farthest left corner (west) of Moosedog Tower, just 15' around the corner from the rappel landing.

Protection 

Pro to 3" or larger if you want to protect the right leaning crack. Crux will take a #1 & #2 C4. Gear anchor up top. Careful downclimb for the descent.
