Description 

Crux is getting off the ground onto the climb. Place a bomber nut and crank.

Location 

Scramble up into the dirty gully and look on the right hand side for the obvious zigzagging crack structure.

Protection 

Small or medium nuts. A few small / medium cams or tricams. Once on the crack, the grade is more relaxed, but don't neglect to put a few good pieces in before finishing. The original line broke right before the slabby corner at the end of the crack and over to the anchors for Killers Crack.
