Description Suggest change

This great problem climbs out a low, sculpted roof on good holds spaced far apart. It has a fairly intricate sequence but will reward what effort is put into it.

Sit start at the very lowest point on hard-to-find undercling edges. Pull on and move to a crimp further out the roof. Left hand to a crimpy horizontal crack, then right to a blocky hold higher up. Cross right to an excellent undercling jug (kneebar!), and consider the last few moves. With the right hand, move to an insecure pinch on the lip of the boulder. Shift some feet, and make a large move to a crystally sloper on the apex of the boulder. Top out, making sure to not hit your head on the limb above the boulder.

NOTE!

Sometime in Early December of 2022 one of the most crucial and largest holds on this climb broke off, it climbs very differently and is likely a grade harder.   

Location Suggest change

Off the left side of the AT between the Entrance and Cranking areas. Obvious low, sculpted roof on a squat, clam shaped boulder. Walk off.

Protection Suggest change

Pad or two. There is a boulder immediately to the left of the cave that you might want to protect.
