Pitch 3 starts with a short offwidth slot, then moves right on the varnished face.

This is the steep and stout crack on P.2 of Rainbow Buttress. It will give you a taste of things to come! Good jams and wide stems! We belayed using the crack with the bush in it in the lower part of the photo, which allowed Sara to keep some of the bigger cams for later.
