Description Suggest change

See beta picture. Start on the left crack and climb it as it goes right. Powerful movement will get you off the ground, small gear protects till it tapers off, then it's a committing move straight up to the roof crack and continue up the roof crack right with little feet and a committing mantle to top out. The old guidebook says use the tree for anchor but you can set up a very good anchor at the lunch ledge.

Moving left instead of right at the roof is a variation called "Lunch Ledge," FA G. Deyett which goes to the small ledge and then around the corner up the face, 5.6 after rounding the corner.

So ALL the cracks flares in one way or another, so please be a solid trad leader for this one.

Location Suggest change

Main Wall right side at Goofer's Roof. You can't miss it.

Protection Suggest change

small gear at the bottom, bigger but trickier gear protects the exit. The roof crack flairs near the exit but there is one spot where the crack doesn't flair and you can get perfect placement if you can spot it. Otherwise the runout to the exit is spicy. Study the beta pic if you want excellent gear beta (hint, it's color coded).
