Description
Magic Marker is the beautiful looking crack on the west face of the Inner Marker, unfortunately the climbing and rock quality can only be enjoyed by some kinds of people. The climb begins (i think) in the cool chimney behind the flake on terrible rock up to two bolts, the first bolt being at about 35 feet. Then into the wide crack that climbs easily with basic technique, but poor rock quality might make some placements dubious. Try to avoid rope drag (good luck) over the two bulge/constrictions. The route finishes on an easy slab run-out through the final thirty feet after the crack terminates.
