Description 

The best line on Jane's Face, this tricky slab route features a couple of awesome mantle moves. The holds you mantel on are deeply in-cut crimps, so you can pull them down to your ankles.
Most of the holds are reasonably good, but they often face the wrong direction, or require careful sequencing, very high steps, etc. You'll probably find the crux to be at two-thirds height, where these features are amplified a bit.
A fun problem that can easily be tried from an anchor on The Flake, or Jane's Face.

Location 

Right of The Flake on Jane's Face. Climb between the two thin seams, and head for the blankest looking faces.
