Description

Uphill from Javelin, find an obvious vertical finger crack leading to a ledge with a tree. Climb an easy slab to the crack, then scale the crack to the tree. Exiting the crack involves some suprisingly tricky jams in a flare, but other holds are available. From the ledge a stout slab with a bolt (crux?) leads to easier ground and the anchor.

Protection

4 bolts, plus gear to 1". Gear for the obvious crack is all that is needed.
