Description This is the crack to the left of Middle Crack. Very nice, sustained, with some offwidth, but mostly fist and hand jams. If one is not familiar with offwidth moves, it is probably 9+.
Location Left most of the triple cracks, not counting Grass Crack, which is on the arete to the left. Becky's is the widest crack of the three or triple cracks.
Protection Big cams, can move left to the anchors on Grass Crack at the top.

| There's NO WAY this is PG-13. PG MAYBE, if you don't have a #5 but it's not PG13 by a long shot. |

| I actually think this is the easiest of the triple cracks. You feet walk up the sides on great crystals for 20+ feet...then a short 6 foot section of jams or layback until you sink a FANTASTIC fist into the widened slot above...then it's over...a cakewalk to the top. And yes, it eats up the gear. Very safe. |
