Description

Unprotected bouldery moves gain a ledge (crux) then launch up the striking wide splitter. A single #4 Camalot or equivalent should suffice, although another large piece may be desired if not sliding the pro with you.

Perhaps somewhat intimidating in appearance, this protects well and is surprisingly fun.

Location

Left of the excellent Right Baskerville Crack is this obvious line that splits the formation. Don't be put off by the width of the crack as it's easier than appearances suggest.
