Description Suggest change

Hopefully I will come up with a better name soon so I don't have to think of his owner, but you may feel like his dog when working into the layback up high. Just don't poop yourself or you will be hosed. Near the right side of the First Wall are some stacked roofs topped by a nose with a vertical crack running up beside it. Stem off the slab under the left side of the lowest roof and climb up to the layback crack that is the start of Wiessner's Crack, which will get you to the lip of the second roof. Climb the middle of the face using a quartz edge as an intermediary to gain a nice scoopy hold just below the upper vertical crack. There was a nice but crumbly pocket at the lip on the FA, but subsequent cleaning took it away, so you get to use the good layback flake to the left. Once matched on the scoopy hold, bring you left foot up and reach around the arete with your right hand to gain a good incut in the horizontal which will allow you to set up to layback the upper crack. Thankfully there is bomber finger lock at the top that will get you securely up to the top out knobs. -highball with a potentially rocky landing

On the right side of the First Wall - starts under the stacked roofs

Protection Suggest change

Don't fall. If you do, you will want a few pads and a good spotter.
