Description

"I have always known about man. From the evidence, I believe his wisdom must walk hand and hand with his idiocy." Dr. Zaius-

Dr. Zaius offers great crack climbing up a tough and tricky face. Well protected, this is an awesome, exciting route with plenty of options for gear. Worth its weight in gold, this line would have a line anywhere else. Unreal!!

Begin in a steep, hand size crack and work up passing a small roof. Continue on the face, following a crack to a ledge that gains a good rest. Climb the dihedral up to a giant roof. Pull and traverse the roof then finish left, up a steep varied face, split by a crack. A mighty fine line, lets hope your wisdom overrules your idiocy...

Location

At the entrance of The Planet of the Apes, this is the obvious, long crack with a giant roof.

Protection

A large assortment of medium to large cams, a single set of small cams and nuts, plenty of small and long runners. A few extra #3's, #4's, and #5's are recommended.
