Description 

C-5: Reference to a board game? Fifth listed route on the Central Battleship? Or remember to bring that clunky #5 Camalot?

Follow the traversing hand crack to a fist, then larger than fists corner. At its widest, a #5 camalot fits nicely, though expect some fresh guano and loose rock. Above the offwidth, a finger crack leads to a chossy ledge. Traverse several feet left on this ledge and finish the climb with the last 15 feet of "Trim Your Bush."

Location 

This is the corner system directly between "Trim Your Bush" and "Poop-Deck."

Belay from the same anchors as "Trim Your Bush;" expect rope drag.

Protection 

Single rack from small TCU's to five inches. Doubles in #3 and #4 Camalots.
