BETA PHOTO: 5.8 Route ascends the obvious crack up to the over...


Description 

The 5.8 crack is located on the north-facing cliff about 200 yards to the west of the Redbird statue. This route was originally described as a "classic 5.8". It is the leftmost route on a steep section of fair-quality rock.

Pull up through the obvious crack system to the roof. Move right and grunt through some jugs to the top.


Protection 

Requires finger-sized protection for trad.

I gave the 5.8 Crack 4 stars because it is one of the favorites at High Cliff. It is very cool climbing from the beginning until the top when it starts getting a little chossy. Definitely a route you need to get on when climbing at High Cliff.
