Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description A easily set-up and oft-done top rope. I've never seen anyone lead it, although I suspect it does get the occasional lead attempt. Reach the top by climbing Squiggles, or climbing the Uberfall Descent and heading left at the top. Climb the crack, then work your way up the pleasant-looking but often dirty face.
Location At a thin crack 15 feet right of Squiggles.
Protection Minimal. Injury potential.
