Description 

This is the clean finger crack that splits the face to the right of Edge-u-cator. Make an awkward start past a couple bulges to reach the start of the finger crack. The crack peters out at the top and there is a 5.8 move getting established on the lower angle slab above. Traverse left to a horizontal and then make a couple mantles to reach the bolted anchors. Would probably be a bit scary up top for a 5.8 leader.
