Description
Start up a thin lightning bolt crack with just enough holds to allow you to hold on. Big moves with minimal options get you past the first three bolts. Above the last bolt is a series of discontinuous cracks and edges up a shallow corner. Clip another bolt and get yourself into an awkward dihedral which ends climbing a splitter hand crack with a surprise at the end. Two bolt anchor with chains for rappelling at the big ledge. A block at the base fell over and after cleaning the rest of the loose stuff made the start about 5 feet lower. As a result, a bolt was added to the start eliminating a big runnout over an uneven landing.
