Description
This is a beautiful, overhanging, right leaning splitter, wide crack. Start on the backside of the boulder on two good hands and a left toe stuck in the crack above these hands, then climb down and around the bottom corner of the boulder and across a steep face before rounding another corner on the boulder, after which a short slab leads to the apex. The crack grows quickly from hands to offwidth and then slowly pinches back down to hands as it goes across the steep face, finishing as a finger sized crack by the time you have rocked over to the slab. This one is bizzarre and beautiful, and very much recommended. The name was inspired by the Shel Silverstien song "Boy Named Sue".
