Description
The long hand crack directly underneath the rap rings, just left of the U-notch at the top.
The name comes from a dead rat that made us hurry past some of the fun jams on the first ascent. Don't worry though, the namesake is now long gone.
Start underneath the crack (or bypass the start) and cruise to the notch at the top. Alternatively just keep climbing to the bolted anchor.
When rappelling, a 60 m rope will get you 20'+ from the ground. Either down climb or just swing left and take the 3rd class gully the last few feet. Just be mindful of where your ends are.

I like splitting the difference and swinging left a bit and down climbing a bit. May 5, 2014

We rappelled this route with a 70m rope and the ends just touched the ground. May 13, 2014
