Description 

I'm Not Worthy climbs an awesome OW splitter crack on great varnished rock. This is one of the cleanest offwidths I have climbed in RR. Great fun but some complications exist because there is no (obvious) bolted anchor. At the end of the day I just downclimbed the route to clean the anchor and gear.

Note: This line has probably seen a few ascent parties throughout history and likely it has been followed upwards through the arch at some point.

Location 

Between Fiddler and Overhanging Hangover. Scramble up some 3rd/4th class ramps to reach a ledge on the left side of a dark varnished pillar.

Protection 

Something similar to #4, old #4, 3x #5 Camalot. Multiple hand sizes for anchor.

2 protection bolts appeared on this pitch at some point but they are unnecessary.
