Description 

This route is the next obvious crack right of Double Crack (approximately fifteen feet). I recall it as a nice (wide?) jamcrack. No surprises.


Protection 

Toprope, solo, or lead with a handful of cams.

due to high traffic, the routes can be a little slick at the bottom.

Nice easy intro to climbing wider cracks--especially good for beginners. I'd say that the old Wolfe guidebook of F5 was correct, and I'd call it 5.4, especially if led. More challenging and interesting than B-2 and B-3 on Trashcan rock.

For a crack there wasn't much crack climbing. I don't think I've ever groveled so much on a 5.3. I must've missed something!

Set this up for my kids this weekend. There's a crux section about 8 feet up that's definitively harder than 5.3. This one may be frustrating for small children.

Fun for a quick route but nothing magical. The first 1/3 of the route protects with hand size cams, but the rest needs big cams. Saw a beginning leader get stuck mid route when he realized he had no pro.
