Description Crux may be getting off the ground... hidden crimpers are delightful as you inch up to the crux, you will know it when you get there. Top 1/3 is slope city... good ledge above.
Location Just around the Clark Bar corner, the pocked wall
Protection Usually TR'd - Led by Bob Clark on gear, but I don't see where to place any until after the crux...trees at the top for anchors

| Years ago we called this climb "Halfmoon" because of the few crescent shaped features that are near the crux. Great climb but I think it deserves more of an "X" than an "R" if someone wants to lead it....... |

| I soloed this after only climbing for a year or so (80s), got to the top and said "What the hell did I do that for". Nice climbing, but a TR is recommended |
