Dr. Diaper

5.9, Trad, Alpine, 30 ft (9 m),  Avg: 2.4 from 22 votes
FA: B. Draney, K. Draney
Utah > Southwest Utah > Brian Head > Overlook > Starting Block

Description

A finger crack that widens at the top to allow one or two nice hand jams. Often TRed, this requires leaning further over the edge than is comfortable to reach the chains.

Location

Dr. Diaper is the first route and obvious crack to the left after descending the trail to the right of the Starting Block formation.

Protection

A single set of nuts and accompanying slings should suffice to get to chain anchors.
