Description Suggest change

There are two cruxes to this route. The first is an 11a slab move kind of right off the ground to gain access to the first pitch crack. (It's possible this can be avoided by starting up the 4th class ramp and traversing right into the crack but I'm not sure as I did not do it that way). The rest of the crack is moderate with some 5.9 at the top of the crack, where it peters out and you have to do a little face climbing to the ledge. Belay at the ledge (gear). The second pitch is a straight up crack - for about 100 feet. Very, very thin with the crux around 1/2 way up. End at the same ledge as Apron Jam.

Location Suggest change

This crack is to the Left of Apron Jam and to the right of the 4th class ramp.

Protection Suggest change

Tiny to 1/2", but it is quite protectable. Lace up that tiny gear.
