Description
Located at the far right end of the Lower Tier. It's the bolted thin crack system to the right of Carpet Bagger. Starts off a big ledge which you can walk onto from the right side. There is a manky anchor with a piton and one bolt at the start.
Begin with easy hand jams to a little alcove at the second bolt. Climb out the small bulge on good finger locks then fire the crux where the locks get bad for a move. Some more 5.11 climbing leads up to and over a small roof. The finish after the final bolt is sort of devious and pumpy (spoiler alert: match the jug out right and reach up near the mossy crack).
This has fun moves and is a more natural line than it looks from the ground. Not as classic as most of the other 12's at Pub San, but definitely worth getting on. It's harder than Spike and Temple of Doom, maybe harder than Tucker's, but much easier than Final Cut and Best Bet.
