Description
This is the single-most obvious line from the parking area. The crack runes the full length of the main wall (30M tall) and goes up a slot down low, past some crack and some left-facing corners, past a huge death block 50' up. The block is avoided via reaching the corner/handcrack on the right of it. Continue on easy terrain (5.5?) to the top, where a few hexes and nuts (cams OK too) build a solid TR anchor.
The beginning is awkward and is not for the novice trad leader. A bit of a sandbag as well, given 5.9+ by the book.
To descend, Walk to climbers right to some bolt anchors, or over the top to a loose gully.
