Description 

There is a crack that splits the wall between Wrangler Girls and Bland Cherokee that we've been climbing for a few years now; don't know who first ascended the route so we've been calling it Kelly's Crack. If there is a first ascensionist, by all means, claim your crack! There are two distinct cruxes, a bulge at the bottom (moving off the ledge at the start) that requires imaginative feet, and the roof at the top of the route. Great protection throughout! Wear a helmet as we tend to pull off a little bit of rock here and there.


Location 

Start at the cave (the bottom of Bland Cherokee), move up onto the ledge and have fun! Parties can rappel from anchors of Wrangler Girls, or walk off.


Protection 

Takes all gear (small to med.), hex, nuts and a #4 friend for the roof move. Save gear for anchors as there are no fixed bolts.
