Description
This climb packs a lot of variety for its short length. Super fun - get on it! The crux is a short with bomber gear, so don't let the grade scare you away (I'd call it 5.11+).
A wide start leads to intermittent hand jams into a vertical off-fingers changing corner and a beautiful, steep finger crack.
The original anchor now only represents half of the route. Rather than clipping the anchor, move right along discontinuous cracks, using the last options for protection before committing to difficult face climbing up to a bolt and exposed arete climbing to the upper anchor. Solid 5.12c.
