Best Crack Wall

Colorado > Gunnison > Hartman Rocks

Description

This wall has a nice finger/mostly hands crack, called Best Crack, that is appropriately named. It's also got a few easier 5.5 - 5.7 cracks, and two mixed (gear and bolts) routes that are 5.11 and an open project (that is probably around 12d - 13a).

Getting There

Just uphill (north) from Tiger Wall, which is just up the road from Buddha's Belly.

Working the Best of Joe Cocker, an already named but open-project. Hopefully he/she who sends is cool with the name.
