Description

Up the crack to meet the other crack coming from its right, then continue on the crack diagonal to the left.

Warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.

. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).

Location

The obvious crack whose bottom is about six feet right from the obvious dark wide gully in the right half of the Check Book sector. This crack rises up to meet another crack, then angles away left from it.
