Description 

Fun offwidth crack with a dead tree in it about 30 feet up. Follow it all the way to the top. Some loose rock here and there in the back of the crack.

Location 

About 40 feet right of Weissner slab....ten feet left of YMC route.

Protection 

Pro isn't too bad at the start....gets much better once you move past the dead tree...last 15 feet are run out without a bong. There used to be a bolt which is not there anymore. Brought a size 4 and 5 cam and didn't use it
