Description
Great jamming and stemming in a fun, dike laced corner.
Location
The obvious right-facing corner on the dike laced face. Chains.
[Hide Comment] It should be noted that the 5.9 variation uses the wall to the left and/or the corner crack, while the .10c variation is straight into the crack pictured (several feet to the right of the dihedral wall).

[Hide Comment] Really fun route. Great for someone breaking into 5.9 leading, as long as you're comfortable jamming! Kinda awkward with the two cracks in the corner, and hard to see into the thin one on the left that takes small gear. You can place a 4 at the wide part, but don't need to. Could take a single rack and be sparse or double rack up to 2 with one 3, although you don't need all if it unless you wanna sew it up realllllll good. Small and mid pieces ftw.
