Description

Start about five feet to the right of Basalt Assault below a wide crack in a right-facing corner. Make a few moves up the wide crack then use the wide crack and the thinner crack on the right to get you to the top.

If you wish to TR the route, you'll need an anchor rope and some slings. There is a medium-sized boulder that can be wrapped and another, smaller block that can be slung. You'll then need to extend from there to the edge of the crag.

Location

Start about five feet to the right of Basalt Assault below a wide crack in a right-facing corner. This spot is roughly 45 feet to the left of the ascent/descent route at the right edge of Sector F.
