Description
This climbs a crack, just right of the center of the Left Side face. From the right side of the face, walk left on a ramp/ledge to this crack. The crack doesn't quite reach the ledge and another crack runs parallel to it up higher. The rock is good. Follow this crack to a ledge, with a wide crack to the left an a hand crack to the right. Follow the crack on the right to the top.
