Description Suggest change

Northern Lights is a seldom climbed short but very steep finger crack in an arching right facing corner. Steep and sustained. Though the gear is mostly small, it’s solid and abundant. 

Location Suggest change

Northern Lights is the furthest crack on the climbers left side of the West Face, located about 40ft left of Happy Face above a short tier. Scramble up the tier to the start.

Protection Suggest change

Cams, doubles to .5 with an emphasis on micro and small offsets if you got them. 
Nuts, many micro offsets and/or brassies to medium size.
