Description

Start as for Crystal Staircase clipping 5 bolts, and then move up and left to a roof. Surmount the roof on jugs, and finish clipping bolts to the anchor of Riding with the Ravens. One of the handholds in the roof is a wedged flake that may pry out. Have your belayer wear a helmet and be to the right as you pull the roof.
