Description 

Berserker is a burly roof crack at White Rock, and there aren't too many like this, so it's worth checking out.. if that's your sort of thing.

Lieback the excellent thin-hands crack in the left-facing corner to a stance below a menacing roof. The roof is offwidth, confusing, strenuous, and harder than it looks, but protects well with a #4 camalot. After the roof, the climbing is much easier to the top.

Once people figure out the crux sequence, they seem to generally think this climb's not as tough as it's original 5.11d rating.

Location 

This is the obvious left-facing lieback crack near the right end of the ONP.

Protection 

Cams from #0.75 camalot to #4 camalot.
Build your own anchor at the top.
