Description [Suggest Change]
An amazing roof crack bars the way to some nice moderate face climbing. Though it says 5 pitches it can easily be done in 3 or 4 if you tolerate some rope drag. Jim Corbett aided the roof crack many years ago and Shannon Stegg finished the route with Wayne and I recently. The route is named after Curt Johnson, a climber who died of cancer a couple years ago.

Doubles of cams to #1 or #2 camalot, single #3 and #4, nuts, possibly tricams, but I don't recall any key placements
