Crazy crack, partially shaded on a hot June day.

Description A fun route on either lead or top rope. Follow the crack up, traverse left at a small roof/ledge, and continue to the top. The climb tops out at a small ledge 3 feet below the true top. This is a great place to sit while you belay your second.
Location This is the furthest left crack on this face. Descent/TR setup: via the third class chimney on Kanaranzi Buttress (South Face).
Protection Nuts, hexes, cams, tri-cams. I didn't use anything bigger than hand/fist sized. Standard top rope setup

| Definitely one of the more protectable climbs in the area. Makes a good lead. |

| Leading up straight over the small roof and then traversing left is a great alternate ending and is a bit harder |

| Great lead... bring #2 and #3 Camalots if you have them. The #3's are great higher up. Those two sizes alone will protect the second half of the climb. |
