Description
The Guru Cracks look nice (and offer a good photo op) from across the other side of the rim. Up close they are really crusty with lichen and the coarse Joshua Tree-esque rock makes the jams painful. The Right Guru Crack is the better of the two, however.
Rap in from above, off a two bolt anchor ontop of a large flat slab. This climb is immediately left of Elephant Talk.
The climb begins below a couple roofs. The first crux is working your way through these roofs. Another crux is further along in the middle of the climb where you've got to make some awkward thin-hands and finger jams with sort of bad feet. At the top of the route are two options. If you're doing this on TR or Mini-Trax then it's probably best to finish straight up the overhanging corner/arch (the finish of Candy-O 5.11d R). Otherwise, traverse way over to the right on runout and chossy flakes to finish on Elephant Talk.
