Description

Another area classic, if only the climb were longer. The climb begins on a small ledge about half way up the cliff. Two option exist for reaching the ledge. You can either climb the face below (5.10a) or climb the bottom of Sentinel Crack and traverse left to reach the bottom of the climb. I'd recommend the face below unless you are leading. The crux of the climb is getting off the ground. The climb starts out as thin hands and slowly widens to fists at the top.

Location

This route is located to the climber's left of Sentinel Crack.

Protection

Cams and hexes from thin hands to fists. For the top rope setup you probably need about 100' of webbing for trees and you might find a nut placement up there somewhere too, but the pro is primarily the trees.
