Description
Begin as for Jammer; but at the end of the opening handcrack, hand-traverse right along the horizontal to a right-rising crack. This second crux accesses a bit of easy slab climbing, up and left to a face with twin short cracks. Climb up the cracks and face to a left-slanting horizontal, step up and slightly left on a sloping ramp beneath a steepening face. One bolt leads the way on the final crux section to a short horizontal, where a delicate step right achieves a left-rising, flaring crack (this is also the top of the Gray-Soiinto variation of the Gray-Harrison).
A bit contrived, with its shared start and finish, but this route links a bunch of interesting, and otherwise-ignored features.
