Tiny bit of a butt shot, but it feels fitting considering The Cube is a neighbor to The Butt Crack Crag! Topped out right about here before chickening out

[Hide Comment] Super sick climb! Justin Connor's video actually shows the beta, route, and individual holds VERY well along with a great spot to place the pads! I chickened out about 3/4 of the way up this morning, but after watching the beta from Justin's video, I'm feeling pretty confident about going back sometime soon! I would be pretty inclined to call this a V1-, but I could see how many could see that as soft! The safety ledge halfway up is a SUPER nice break, I'm certainly inclined to call this one of the best downclimbs on this crag! Jul 31, 2025
