Description
Classic two pitch corner crack with an abundance of jams, stemming, and liebacking.
Pitch 1 (5.10+, 15m) - Climb past a single carrot bolt and up into the corner crack to a roof feature. Traverse left along the roof until you reach a good ledge. Belay off a Bolt and 0.75 cam. This pitch frequently seeps and it can be difficult to get it in good condition.
Pitch 2 (5.10+, 30m) - Move off a ledge into a corner crack system. The crack starts thin but eventually widens out. As you move up further the crack steepens and there start to be usable features behind you. Some 3D climbing leads you to jugs up top, belay off two widely spaced ring bolts.
