Pitch 1. Free at 12a. Somewhat hidden from casual onlookers below by nasty-hard face climbing or a bolt ladder, the W face provides THE sickest finger crack climbing at Smith. Doesn't get nearly enough attention. Enjoy!
"Bomber" (for Back in the Day) first pitch anchor with 1/4" Rawls. May 1971.

Hook move right off the deck. There’s 2 holes, the upper one felt easier to climb up the aider, but both are equally bomber.
