Looking up Cold Turkey.<br> The wide junky stuff at the bottom is worth it when you reach the solid steep crack....

Just below the crux. The handcrack ends, and the crux moves lead past a fixed pin to finger locks and more hand jams. The overhanging crack below is most easily laybacked, because it gets too wide for hands. There are mineral deposits on the left wall for feet, and your right foot jams the crack.<br> <br> Photo by Chuck Graves.

Slinging the loose horn. There are small wires below on the right wall, and you can get in a mediocre #3/blue Camalot in a pocket above. But the climbing is not that hard, about 5.8.<br> Photo by Chuck Graves.
Exiting the chimney. After only a couple of chimney moves you can reach the loose horn and get a stem. More stemming leads to jugs and the exit move.<br> Photo by Chuck Graves.
