Description
This is the righthand crack.
A fun climb full of very cool moves.
Good little slots lead to the first impasse; a rather ominous bulge. Good technique pays dividends here and soon the next impasse is reached. Cool high step moves will pull you through this to the last impasse, a thought-provoking but not difficult mantle.
Pull over the top to a medium cam anchor.
