Description

Climb through initially slabby terrain up the corner. You can clip the bolts or place pro in the corner. The terrain will steepen halfway up as you approach a point at which the crack becomes a small cave big enough to stand in. If climbing trad, protection gets a little tricky here. Circumvent the cave on either wall (right is easier, following small overlapping flakes) and move up to the anchors.

Location

Just left of "Jam and Run" on the south wall is a left-leaning corner crack with a big pod/mini-cave.

Protection

Cams to 3" and nuts. 6-8 single length slings. 1-2 double-length slings. The cave exit can be protected with a bolt, if you don't want to fiddle with gear.
