Start left of "The Stain" about 30', directly below the fat crack high on the wall.

Description

Make a beeline for the short, fat crack high on the wall, following flakes, knobs, et. al. Climb the crack. Say hello the to the black lizard that lives in the crack.Numerous options for exit exist -- e.g. where the angle lessens, above the fat crack, walk up next to the ginormous left-leaning flake-like feature.

Protection

You might be able to sling some heads, and the fat crack would take some big pro, but why bother...?
