Description 

About 100' feet up the bottom from the Cresent is a wide crack in the face. Forty feet further north locate two cracks that criss-cross about mid-face. Ascend cracks about 200' to where they fade out. Then run it out 60' to the top.


Protection 

Cams-bring the whole rack. The crack leading up the face on the first pitch will take up to a #2 Friend. The belay at about the 150' mark can be protected with smaller cams-.5 to .75. The belay on the ridge will take the big ones up to 4".
