Description

Awesome crack to great, sculpted holds and horizontals in white and orange rock. Head to anchors under little cap stone overhanging top.

Location

Left side of wall. Locate obvious crack that starts up face.

Protection

Normal TN trad rack, maybe on lighter side.

Born Slippy

This is a must-do. Great jams, hueco jugs, movement, and some the coolest horizontal, cam-plugging face around. Also, fantastic rock and protection. Take small cams for bomber horizontals.
