Description
This climb takes the striking crack on the left side of the formation's east face and is a definite must do for the grade.
The start is a somewhat bouldery move into a thin crack that slowly widens throughout the length of the climb. Those not well-versed in wider cracks may desire something larger than suggested to protect the upper section. The climb ends on a nice ledge with anchors which give quick and easy access back to your pack.
Continuous and varied, this splitter is one that should be on your list of climbs to do at the grade - you won't be dissapointed.
