Description

Starts off with a variety of easy hand cracks at the base. As you move up the first 20 feet or so you will find a dual crack system that is perfect for hand jams. Continue to the small alcove near the top, and at this point you have the option to enter an offwidth crack or traverse right for a section of slab. Belay your partner up from the alcove, and walk to the bolted anchors atop Mr. Michael Goes to Washington.

Location

It is found just to the left of Mr. Michael Goes to Washington. Look for the series of crack that drop below the top of Blue Sky Black Death to the left.
