BETA PHOTO: Eve of War ascends the crack system furthest left....

Description 

One pitch of sustained 5.8 moves with good hands. Solid at the grade and rare for good moderates on this rock. From the comfy belay ledge, Julian pushed a second pitch out 20 ft right on a foot travere then climbed a good 5.10 corner another 30 ft until the climbing became thin and desperate. Any attempt at finishing this line would prove demanding. Trundling is the crux.

Location 

Leftmost crack system on the west face of Rough Wall. Ascend curving crack-corner to obvious belay ledge which terraces off to the left (to Waxing Gibbous).

Protection 

Mostly 2s and 3s. Small gear for the anchor.
