Description
Main Street Crack ends below a small tree/bush where most people escape right to Riverview Ledge. Josh's Hump continues straight up short slabby section of rock below The Great Roof to a stance in the left corner under the roof. Microstoppers or a #00 Camalot buys you some protection here before a scary traverse to the left out on a prominent, light-colored arete. The is the arete where Josh Laudermilch (seconding my lead) stopped to hug and/or hump the arete. Use a long runner on the gear in the corner to avoid rope drag on The Great Roof above.
We regularly do this route in one pitch with long slings, especially under the roof. Communication with your second is difficult when you are on the summit and your second is under The Great Roof.
Note: You can also start on Witches Brew, and move right up under the Great Roof before you head into the Chimney.
