Description
An OK pitch that serves as a decent start to the White Corner route.
P1: Climb up this crack/corner on jams and horizontals and eventually trend hard left through huge, lichen covered holds. Aim for the White Corner as it becomes visible and set a belay in the bottom of this large, left-facing corner. 5.9, 100'
NOTE: I believe that there is an unaesthetic, dirty, easy (5.6ish) finish to this route, but I have not done it. The much more appealing option is to head up White Corner.
