Description

Tall and bad landing. Crux puts you right over a jumble of rocks that are hard to pad. However, I have seen many people fall there with no injuries, so proper spotting can help a lot.

A fun problem, it seems hard to walk by this and not do it.

Location

On the right hand side of the East face of Fight Club boulder. This line sit starts with a good crimp for the left and a baseball-sized hueco for the right. Follow the jug line up and left along the arete. Walk off the West side. Line #5 on the Space Monkey picture.

Protection

pads and a couple good spotters
