Jeff is cruising the nice hand crack section. The...


Description 

This is a really fun route with a relatively short, but hard crux. It is the elegantly curving crack to the right of Gunsmoke, and starts with perfect hands before some fingery 5.10 moves into a rest pod. Moving out of the pod up to the final crux seems about 10+ or so, then it's 10 feet of desperate, splitter rattly fingers to the anchors. Jump on it even if you're not a solid 11+ desert climber since the crux is short. Great route!


Protection 

Friends: 3-4 #2.5; 3-4 #2; 3-4 #1.5 (save 2 for the crux at the top), and maybe a couple #1s

Does anyone know if this route goes on? The crack tapers to fingers after the anchors and the rock is spectacular.Next time I'm in town I'm gonna give it a go, but I'm curious if it's been done already?

There's some really dangerous loose blocks on a ledge 20-30 feet over the current anchors that would be most prudently cleaned on rappel.
