Description Suggest change

This beautiful laser cut roof crack is one of the best cracks in the jungle.
Begin on easy terrain before pure fist jams lead you to a 4' roof.
Jam through the roof on fists/cupped hands and only 6' and a few roof moves await you before clipping the chains.

It is recommended to place a BD#3 in the last roof crack above and left of the chains as a high point for your 2nd.
Then redirect the rope through the chains. The anchor placement makes things a little funky but allows for zero rope drag and possible 2nd pitch (11+).
This route protects like a dream and is a great introduction into wide roof cracks. It remains shady all day and is blocked from the wind.

Location Suggest change

Across from Kestrel Tower and the small block that holds Falco and Bird of Prey. 

Protection Suggest change

BD#4(x4) and BD#3(x3) will allow you to sew it up. Once you hit the roof, the crack narrows to #3s.
