Description
The route climbs through opening face moves leading to a section of thin and broken cracks just below the namesake crux. In the dark rock on the upper half of the route launch into a technical and balance sequence between a couple of pretty positive but reachy 3 finger pockets ending at a horizontal. Another body length of easier terrain will put you at the anchor.
Location
Descent: Head straight back into the gully and scramble down to climbers left to the approach trail leading back to the base of the wall.
