Just over the overlap

Description Climb up to the obvious overlap on the left side of the cliff and follow it left, traversing to a crack on its left. Climb the overhang and follow the path of least resistance to the top.
Location Starts below the right end of a small roof at a finger crack, about 30' from the left side of the cliff.

| Another great route. I found it to be pumpy but not as technical as the Center Crack. Great hands through the traverse and good feet for most of it. Pulling the roof is the crux, but the unprotected move off the ground is certainly a 5.8 move. |

| Gear is great but not always obvious. Poor planning can expose the second to a swing in the middle section. |
