Description Suggest change

Just to the right of Very Nice Crack, there is an arete. Dr. Claw starts with a hand in the crack but immediately traverses up and rightward on crimps to the arete. Once on the arete, head straight up. Everything so far is the crux haha. The holds are pretty easy to identify but hard to move between. Once you make the last hard move to gain the mid route jug rest, things ease up. Maybe hard 5.10 or lower 5.11 to the top. 

There is a right hand start that is likely possible but much harder. Give it a go. Whichever start you choose, stick clipping the second bolt is recommended. 

Location Suggest change

On the upper deck to the left of the gully. Starts the base of Very Nice Crack. 

Protection Suggest change

4 bolts to quick clips. Helpful to stick clip the second bolt as it’s not too high and it’s a strenuous clip.
