Description 

Solid crack that slowly fades away to a slabby finish. Seems pretty easy until the crack and your pro disappear. Belay from the other side of the split. If your setting up a top rope be sure to climb the variation to the left and right side of the crack.

Location 

This is the right most crack on the north west face. Easy to see from the parking lot.

Protection 

Micro to 2" Belay takes 1" and 30' of webbing or static line for a top rope. Walk off back side or shimmy the chimney.
