Description

I don't know the official name, so if you do, add it in the comments!

This is a sorta OW sorta chimney between the 5.9 crack and the 5.5 Swan Slab Chimney. It's short, kinda stout, and fun.

Location

Route lies left of Swan Slab Chimney.

Protection

Probably some wide gear. Maybe a pad? TR or solo.
