Description
At the right hand edge of the Corona wall, near to the point where it becomes Dos Equis, there is a short vertical crack system. Climb and protect this, moving up and right into a second crack, and then pop up and over onto the right-hand shoulder of the wall, following bolts up to the top. The crux is moving up from the ramp onto the face, with a bolt right were you'll want it. The crux move? Easy for 5.10b. Maybe 5.9 or 5.10a. Rap from the nearby anchors or walk off.
