Description 

Right of Plumb Line and Zot, is a wide crack that starts bush and tree choked. Climb this to the top of it. The initial moves seemed harder than 5.6, and the rock was rice-y. The crack chewed up my hands, and the trees detract a lot. Getting above the trees, I realized that I did not bring enough wide gear to finish it safely and backed off of it. It looks from this point to be very fun. If the route cleaned up and the trees weren't there it would be a very fun wide crack.

Location 

Right of Zot and Plumbline.

Protection 

Wide gear. I had a #4 DMM, that I used right away. I needed a few more of this size and larger.
