Description
This route is located in a SW facing alcove just south of the summit tower. If approaching from the west saddle of the third flatiron, you will walk most of the way around the Green Thumb to get here.
The vertical crack in the back of the alcove is Green Crack (5.8+). Climb the crack, short but sweet. Rap back down from a small tree at the top. I would give this route 3 stars if it wasn't so short.
