Description Climb up to the crack; getting there is the crux. Continue up with wonderful jams, especially for the right side, until the crack takes a sudden dogleg left. Either follow the crack to its end, then head over to Glee Club Crack to finish, or (original ascent line) climb straight up knobby slab to the top.
Location Just before the base of the slab begins to rise sharply up to the right, near its right end, lies a left-facing corner with a crack in it, neither of which reach the ground.
Protection .5 to #2 C4s. Doubles of .7 and 1. Nuts, Hexes, and other toys will also do.

| One of my new favorite moderates at Crane. Will definitely lead it for fun next time (didn't have time for that today). Rock is clean and jams are great. High quality easy route. |
