Description Suggestion
Find the column that sticks out toward the parking lot the most in the main area (this is the 5th Column). To its right, there are two cracks. Jam Left (or "Speed Crack") is the left crack, the wider of the two cracks of the 4th Column. Start with face holds at the jumbled bottom, move into finger locks, then finish with hand-jams that get wide at the top. Directly jam the crack only (no face holds after the bottom) for a slightly harder climb.
