Description
Start up a slightly right-leaning crack that begins with rattly fingers or very tight hands, which ascends 2/3 of the way up to a small recess, where it does a subtle dogleg to turn slightly left-leaning rest of the way via big hands to the top. Sharp rock. Might feel harder for some hand sizes, or easier.
Giving this a non-generic name instead of adding another Unknown or Unnamed to the world. Not documented in any of the books. If there's already a name and info for this crack, happy to update to reflect.
Location and Descent
Located at the very top of the rock gully, approx 20 ft left and above the joint start of Secondary Inspection and Border Patrol. At the top, scramble through the gap to climber's right and foot traverse out across a horizontal crack (easy but exposed) to Border Patrol rap anchor. Secondary Inspection description also mentions possible to scramble off.
