Description
Climb a wide crack down low, transition right across a face, and gain another widening crack up high.
According to the old Anderson guide, this route used to have 3 fixed pins, but now it only appears to have one. Small cams (think black Alien, purple/silver TCU) protect what are probably the old pin scars in a left-slanting seam. The R comes from the fact that these placements are a bit hard to see, and if you blow them, it could be ugly.
All in all, an exciting and interesting route with a bit of spice.
