Description 

This climbs the crack/weaknesses just to the right of the broken chimney. It has some rotten rock, especially at mid-height. A couple of small finger locks, and knuckle-crunching jams, a few more lieback style moves, and a couple of lunges to fingertip holds. A tough climb. Beware of the top-rope, because of the tree make sure you can commit to making the first 15-20 feet, to prevent a swing into the tree.


Protection 

2 rap hangers at the top for anchors, or an easy top-rope set up. Approach via the cracks on the east face. Might protect with small to medium gear.
