Description 

Fun route up previously unexplored section of the wall. Goes up through the "Elephants Feet" to the right of Aint Crack. First pitch follows flared crack up to the Elephant's Feet roof and passes it on right to follow 5.8 offwidth, natural belay with gear from 3 to 4 inches at the water groove(long slings good to reduce rope drag at the roof). Next pitch angles up and left on the slab to a steep arete(wild exposure) following a line of bolts, 10b- take natural gear for belay #3 camalot size. Last pitch is the crux on steep crystals to the right of Aint Crack headwall to a bolt belay.

Protection 

Take gear up to #4 Camalot and 8 draws. Long slings to reduce rope drag on first and second pitches.
