Description 

Start in the huge "Chimney", where you have a fun but big stem with your feet to your shoulders, it has a #1 or #2 gear placement in the back. climb up 15 ft past "Chimney" to a hand crack all the way up.


Location 

Climb is at the north end of the crag. Easier to start at top and repell down.


Protection 

You will need a small desert rack consisting of a couple BD 2's and down to .3 BD. This has a two bolt anchor.

Not to be pedantic, but if its big enough to get a full body stem, then isn't it a chimney? Offwidths being that awful off-size between fists and chimneys after all.

I only ask because when I hear "offwdith", I pack the #4, 5, and 6 cams and get after it. When I hear chimney, I grab the #5 bro and hope the chimney is small enough to fit it.
