Giovanni struggling up the steep crack.


Description 

A short fist/hand crack, if it were only longer it would be a stellar climb! It is 5.9+ only if you are confident with crack climbing technique, otherwise this could be a scary lead. It is dead-vertical and if it weren't for the nice foot-holds, it could be rated much harder. With only 30 ft of climbing you may find yourself pumping out as you hand off those bomber jams... then again maybe not.


Location 

Located on the west side of the dome on a short headwall, this route is the left of two large cracks on this headwall.


Protection 

3 large pieces (#3 camelot and bigger) sew this climb up. Feel free to use 2 or only one piece. a gear anchor can be made for top-roping, or a walk-off/scramble can be found to the south.
