Plan D is a great route that most people have failed to notice. The route ascends the middle of the first large face after you come down the access gully. It forges up the blank face, through a bulge, and into the crux dead point that has shut down multiple climbers. After the dead point, finish through the top jugs.

Plan D starts on a disconnected crack in the middle of a blank face about 15 left of the Classic 5.8 Crack.
It all goes back to the first time I climbed the route. It took me four times to do the crux move-the dead point. The move is awesome, none the less, and is a great feeling sticking it. I will also add that the one move is a lot harder than the 11- grade, but because the entire route is so short it is hard to call it anything higher.
