Absolutely fantastic crack, one of the best in the canyon in my opinion. Two cruxes, one pulling the roof on big deep hands, then another pulling a section of tight hands a little before the ledge, with great karate chop hands in between. If you have small hands and/or short arms, the first crux will be especially difficult for you, and just the reverse if you have meathooks. Sweet route, do it!
Location
Right under the south side of the bridge. This is the right of the two obvious prominent cracks.
Protection
Plenty of #3 and #3.5 Freinds, and doubles down to #1. I believe you can aslo stuff a big cam such as an old #4 Camalot or #5 Freind in a pod if you want to lug it around. That should sew it up.
Yes, this is a great climb - beautiful jams in friendly rock! There are some very good face climbs here as well and the bridge can be used as a TR anchor.
