Description
Sustained thoughtful with a variety of techniques, including a tricky exit.
Straight up the crack from bottom to top.
Consider starting from standing on top of rock to left of crack -- the route is sufficiently tough even with that advantage).
warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber - (and if possible, behind a large tree).
