Description
Shallow changing corners with fingers/tight-hands end with crux moves out of the crack where it pinches down to less than tips, one long reach hits the first of a series of surprising crimps that quickly turn to large flat rails as the angle rolls over. Uncharacteristic face climbing for the Creek along the now very thin crack. Unless you bring several 000 C3s, this final bit will be runout, but it's pretty mellow climbing.
