Description 

Formerly known as The Virgin due to the fact that nobody could climb it (supposedly, even Lynn Hill made an unsuccessful attempt at it), One Over The Hill was eventually freed on lead. This thin overhanging crack is rarely climbed, and even then, usually on toprope. A series of small face holds near the crack were eventually found to be crucial to the top section of this route.


Location 

The obvious, thin overhanging crack on the face to the left of Fred P. Jones.


Protection 

TR, it appears that it would take good gear.

This route is epically stout for the grade. The locks are shallow, flaring, and wretched, and placing gear is exceedingly difficult. Get ready to get your crimp on for this one.

Protects well with Aliens/TCUs and a rack-o-nuts
