Description 

Toy Blocks climbs the obvious traversing hand crack that starts immediately left of Ring Of Fire. Move up to the crack (can clip a bolt on the new bolted 10b) and follow it rightward. After about 15 feet of diagonal traversing, move up via a thin hand crack. Climb up this intermittent crack system alternating between face moves and cracks in the acute dihedral (crux). Watch for a bit of hollow-sounding rock here & a small, movable block near the top. Move left at top to bolted anchor.

Location 

Combination Blocks area on east side of Christian Brothers formation.

Protection 

Double set of cams to #2 Camalot. Additional finger sized pieces might be useful.
