Description
This is a pretty good climb that is as easy as it is owing to big secure holds, despite the steep nature of the climb in general and it's wide spots near bulges and leaning sections. Climb up and through the cracks to a crux up near the top (good protection) and finish on the rap to belay before scrambling off to the West.
Location
This crack system is the right-most crack on the wall other than the 2-tiered wide crack at the far right of the N-facing corridor wall, which appears not to be a route at all. This is right of Intruding Dike (the crack that looks like a 1" splitter) and Hough's Crack, which is just right of that a few paces.
