Description Suggest change

One of the greats at Area 51, and not to be missed if you're climbing at this level.

Start on the small holds to the right of Black Lung and bump right into the horizontal crack (the big jug on the far right side of the crack is off apparently, and knocks the grade down a bit if you care about that sort of thing). Make a big move up to the sharp crimps above and then make a pretty desperate move to the 'starfish' at the top.

The crux for me was either campusing or using a funky heel hook to match in the crack, although the deadpoints at the top are troublesome for others.

"Steven originally started on two small crimps left of where everyone now starts, he also called it V11!"

Just to the right of Black Lung on the main boulder.
