Description
When you look at this striking, thin finger crack that leads up a clean short wall to a very cool hueco-like dish at the top, the question is do you grab a rack or boulder it? As a trad line it is probably a bit short, but as a semi-highball it shines. The landing is flat, the balancy crux comes at mid-height, and the various finger locks are all bomber.
Location
From The Good Book, follow the footpath right and up to the upper tier of the cliff band. Continue along the base of the cliffs for about a minute, and this climb will appear on a small band just before you reach a deep corner, aka Cornered.
