Description 

A left-leaning crack in a corner system that rewards good jam/stem/lieback technique. The exit moves through the roof are a bit tricky, and can be difficult to protect. (The eponymous rusty bong has been removed from the crack and was last seen several years ago.)


Location 

Start at the base of the huge, left-facing corner/crack system.


Protection 

cams up to #3 camalot

Great climb! Great protection. I would recommend doubling up on cam sizes 1, 2 & 3 (C4's) because the crack is pretty consistent that size. The top is very tricky.
