Roger on an unnamed 5.11a crack near the right end...

Description 

If you're going to climb a 5.11 at the Big Enchilada, "Twenty-Two" is a good choice.

Up a broken dihedral, pull a small roof, and layback (1st crux) up to another overhung crux passing over a bulge below the prow.

Location 

Route #22 in Chen/Wehner, as shown on the South Side beta photo.

This climb is also listed as Beverly #24 (5.11a) and Jackson #9 (5.11a).

Protection 

TR, or lead this with a standard rack up to 2", with 2 ea. of smaller cams and TCUs helpful.
2-bolt anchor, reachable from the top, was installed to prevent further damage to trees.
