Description
Basically the Incredible Hand Crack of Iowa. Short facey section followed by 25 feet of slammer hands with face holds abounding. Doesn't get much better for Iowa slimestone. "Highly recommended"
Name from the petrogylph at the base of the climb, just who Melanie was and why their name adorns the climb has been lost to time. Guidebook author John Ferguson recounts a massive trundling block while photographing a friend climbing the route that eviserated two 6 inch diameter trees at the base of the climb.
