Description 

Located between Buckets To Somewhere (5.11a) and High Spark Of Low Heeled Boys (5.11a), this crack line forms a natural break between the steeper section of rock on the left and a steep slab on the right.

The climb starts up a nice hand crack (5.9) and then quickly widens into a chimney which is less unpleasant than appearances, or the name, might suggest. Belay from gear and walk off or traverse right to use the bolted anchor atop High Spark.

Protection
