Denmark transitions into the flake.

Description 

This excellent line starts off tough and never really lets up. Sustained and pumpy.

Starting at a thin face, balance your way up on crimpers and small sidepulls to more positive holds (stick clipping is a good idea). Continue up to a shallow roof; traverse left under the root to gain a left-facing flake. Continue up this flake until it peters out, then finesse through a short thin section (crux). Use nice incuts to fire through the steep face up to a slightly overhanging finish.

Location 

Starts below a shallow roof about halfway up, about 15' right of Unknown #3.

Protection 

5-6 bolts; open shut anchors.
