Description Suggest change

This climb is located just a wee wander up from the virgin area and is identified by a sequence of cracks each offset a couple feet. Indeed, the crux is changing from one crack to the other as the first peters out. For a moderate route (although a stout 5.8), this is about as good as it gets at Penitente and is a great reason to haul gear in. I placed mostly nuts, a small one at the crux. It is super fun and different when your tips are spent from pulling on thin crimpers.

Protection Suggest change

Nuts and cams to 2" plus some quickdraws or slings for the bolt anchor.
