Description 

Pitch 1 is the biznass. Start on a bouldery crux on the chalked holds through some thin holds to an obvious broken crack feature. Crank through this pumpy crack for about 40 feet to slightly easier terrain then to a horn with slings.

Pitch 2, climb 5.8ish over a bulge straight to the top of the buttress.

Pitch 3, head 50 feet to cross a chasm to top out on a short step section to the top.

Location 

Located to the left of Stopperhead Arete on the obvious crack system up beautiful solid stone. If you come to the Paradise routes, you've gone too far.

Protection 

Typical NC rack.
