Vanessa Cassat working on Beer Crack.


Description 

This is a new Vedauwoo classic. It is a sixty degree overhanging splitter hand crack roof that leads to a gaping flared offwidth exit, which isn't too bad due to a big face hold to the left of the crack. Start sitting down on the first good hands at the bottom of the roof. There are many ways to do the end, so after you figure it out you can just keep playing around. This thing is really good.


Location 

Park as for the other problems and hike toward the obvious rocks. When you get to them head left a couple hundred yards and look to your right for the obvious roof.


Protection 

A pad and a spotter can be nice for the lip.

One should say that a pad and spotter can be nice for the lip, depending on your beta. There's a way to do it that makes it completely safe, but it is body size dependent. Awesome, awesome line.

Also, from the parking area, there is a faint trail that deposits you about 50 feet right of this thing on the ridge line. It's right next to the creek.

If you go to do this thing, take a shovel, it could be extended another 15 feet by digging out the back of the cave.
