Description
This is the 45' extension to the unnamed 5.11 just right of The Mayes. Climb the cool zigzagging flake up to the last corner change where the unnamed 5.11 finishes with a somewhat awkward and reachy anchor clip. Instead of clipping this anchor, climb through the last changing corner and into the flare. Follow the flare until it opens up, and then step delicately onto the sugary ledge at the top of the crack.
Protection
In BD sizes: (1) .2, (2) .3, (3-4) .4, (2) .5, (3-4) .75, (4-5) 1, (1-2) 2, (1) 3. There's a good spot for the #3 near the very top of the route to protect the top-out moves, but you could get by with just small cams (.2-.3) at the top as well.
An 80-meter rope is recommended for this route. However, the bottom of the climb is kind of scrambly and there's still the original midway anchor, so there are some options for shorter ropes.
