Description Suggest change

Cool climb, marred by a less than desirable Jenga block tower of rock in the middle.

Start 10 feet to the left of Stan's Crack, in a corner with a thin crack that continues to the wall above. Ball nuts and tiny nuts are useful here, until you can sink a solid cam in about 15 feet up. Follow the overhanging crack past a bomber rock section, and then through a spooky jumble of blocks. Gear is pretty good though, all things considered. Once past this section, pull through a slightly overhanging section of good rock, and figure out how to get into the seam on the small headwall (00 mastercam and grappling hook were key), directly to the left of the anchors for the first pitch of Stan's Crack. Follow this seam until you get to overhanging rock, and trend right to intersect Stan's Crack's second pitch direct finish at the #4/5 C4 crack, and climb 15 more feet to the anchors.

Location Suggest change

Towers area at Sunset. This climb starts in the chimney alcove at the obvious right-facing corner 10 feet left of Stan's Crack.

Protection Suggest change

Aid gear. Cams galore of all sizes. Ballnuts, micros, and hooks necessary.
