At the crux. A shorter climber wouldn't be able to get into this stem.

Douglas S. kickin it!
This stem feels awful good when you get it and there are one or two more as you head up. (Photo by Ivan Rezucha)
Just below the crux, the crack narrows so you can place something small enough for a blue Camalot or smaller gear. I got a blue in about 10 feet below this but nearly arm's length into the crack. (Photo by Ivan Rezucha)
The climbing is relatively easy at the wide part of the crack so you'll probably be leap-frogging and sliding up the big cams, even if you have a lot. (Photo by Ivan Rezucha)
Harder than it looks!
