Description Suggest change

Nice 5.10 splitter crack that runs up the middle of just off vertical green colored face. Lots of green colored lichens either side of the crack but doesn't effect the climbing one bit. Crux is right at mid-point where crack shoots straight up and becomes smaller (small fingers) and slightly flaring. There is a nice face hold just left of the crack edge that helps to reach past the flared portion and to reach a great right hand ring finger lock with a just barely usable opposing thumb push (makes the lock a bit more solid). There are two possible finishes- one tops out on ledge to left at top, the other climbs through steep crack and broken rock to higher ledge over to right. The right hand finish makes the climb longer and more fun.

Location Suggest change

Located on steep face down below western exposure of Turks Tooth

Protection Suggest change

Except for the first 10-12 feet (pro is smaller and more marginal here) the whole climb protects beautifully and bomber with wired stoppers, tricams, and TCUs or cams (all in small to large finger size).
