Description
Gem is a shorter crack (just 60') on the right hand side of the Corridor Face to the right of Colorado Crack. Climb the hand crack which widens to fists towards the top. Anchor: slung block (cordalette and/or long webbing helpful). To descend, scramble off to the north (climber's right). This involves a move or two of downclimbing.
