Description 

Climb either of the two parallel cracks to a small stance (crux). Directly above is the finish to Rocket. Step right and continue up the left side of the block that forms the right facing corner on Maiming of the Shrew. Small holds with plenty of short cracks for good gear placements.

Location 

Just to the right of the top of the first wooden ladder. Look for the parallel cracks.

Protection 

Light rack with small cams, sling anchor.
