Description
What’s great about this line is that you can climb completely in the crack at the bottom for a burly experience or if you’re newer to offwidth you can give it your best and still safely bail to the adjacent face holds behind you while plugging gear into the crack from more comfortable stances. Likewise on the top half, you can sink a hip in or make use of the face as you see fit. Staying entirely in the crack will give you a 5.10b experience while climbing it via the face and plugging gear in the crack will go at 5.8.
Begin in the shallow corner just left of the start of Little Hitlers and work your way up the arching crack through hands, fists, calves, and knees. As the crack widens, it also tips further back beyond vertical until you reach a small roof. Get creative to pull the roof from entirely within the crack or get some help from the face holds and move up and onto the large ledge. From here, attack the wide and short-but-sweet crack through the squeezy keyhole (if you’re small enough to fit) to top out. The anchor is found on the left wall.
