Description 

start up a funky chimney with some awkward jams. grab a sharp blockette and pull through a slot to a no hands ledge. use long slings down low or you can pull your rope through to reduce drag. get some pieces up high before you take off. theres a slab on the right and an arete on the left. some cool stemming gets you up to a rest. .2/RPs. then the crux , i wont tell you much but use your feet and push really hard. the gear is tiny and its all pretty good. its only 5.11 but you need to sack up for this 5.11, think mayflower direct, but harder.

Location 

between vertebrea and midwestern gangster

Protection 

heavy on the fingers on down to thin, RPs and one thin hand piece for the start.
