Description
This crack lies left and around the corner of Wounded Knee (on west face) and joins that route for the upper crack and face section. Up the straight up crack, move right into another crack to a horizontal, then up face past 2 bolts to 2 bolt anchor/rap. A little loose at the bottom, but would definitely clean up.
