Description 

Climbs a nice crack in a clean corner through 2 roofs. This is a nice bonus pitch after topping out on Turkish Bride or The Windows Route, and would merit 4 stars on it's own if it was longer. Gets sun in am & shade in afternoon.

Start on limestone band at the top of Tofurkey. Work up clean crack in right facing corner that starts out tips and widens to hands. Pass 2 roofs on the right, then up easier ground to lower summit of ST.

Protection 

Several small cams through #1 Camalot, 2 #2's, and a #3 should sew it up nicely. Small gear for the anchor. Anchor can be backed up by rappel bolts on north side of tower.

Location 

Located on south side of Supercrack Tower. Climb starts on the limestone band on right side of face, near the top of Tofurkey. Either climb Tofurkey (5.9,) or climb either The Windows Route or Turkish Bride & rappel down to the start.
