Flare is one of 3 5.9s in the shorter left section of the New New Place. The flared slot about 15' up is the obvious crux of the climb. Above this flare, the crack is still thin, but more edges are present on either side.

As a lead, this climb is ok to try, but is a step up in difficulty from the cracks on either of side of it, because the gear is mostly small and not always at your nose.

Flare goes up the flared slot near the left side of the New New Place. It is up and left of the giant skull graffiti.
