Description

This is the obvious crack running up the narrow south face of the tower. It finishes under the big roof at a set of rap anchors. This would be a good first trad lead for new climbers.

Location

Southernmost point of the tower.

Protection

Gear to 3 inches. Note, gear at the start is tricky, but a 3" cam with a long runner or a slung chickenhead will tame the opening moves, even if it comes off as you pass it. Should get you safely established into the crack.
