Description

20 degree overhanging crack. Starts hands and gradually opens to 4 or 5 inches. Ignore the chockstone once your fists start to rattle and you'll have to dig up some offwidth technique to reach the top. If you're actually climbing this you're probably pretty desperate (or just really like crack), so try a few variations like sit-starts, face holds off, etc.. Lots of fun!
