Description
This climb begins in a very shallow dihedral with an unprotectable seam a few yards left of Powered by Old English (PbOE). Tenuous face climbing (5.10+) leads to an initially intermittent finger crack 15' from the bottom. The crux involves sequential moves that are technical and powerful over two bulges. Near the top the finger crack curves 90 degrees to the right and merges with PbOE. Clip the last bolt on PbOE before reaching the anchors.
