Description

Climb the Bat Crack but instead of mantling at the top of the pitch, head up and then hard right to a 2 bolt anchor. From here, work your way up the smooth corner via excellent stemming / palming / crimps / slopers, busting left and right of the corner as needed. An excellent full value pitch with great position!

Location

See 'The Vampire' for directions to the route. After finishing The Crucifix, continue up Field of Dreams to top out. Or, rap back to start of Crucifix & then 2 rope rap down/right of the start of the Bat Crack direct start (haven't done this).
