Description
A very large crack that is disconnected by a seam. First crux is at the seam with many more until the chains. Was rated PG-13 because of tricky placements and loose rock. Do not finger jam left of small pillar about 20ft up or you may pry it on to your belayer. This is a good Zion offwidth test piece. If you can master this climb then the bigger wall climbs with scattered 5.10 off widths will be much lighter on your soul.
This route was named after the an event that occurred at the first Gettin' Western Party that was put on by the Wiley Bois. After a long night of fungus indulging and tequila shootin' one of the wiley guests decided to drive a car in a 6 ft ditch, then fist fight her way to glory. The Bernie Breakdown was a hard one to combat. Many of the wiley bois found themselves bruised and caught in spiraling hysterical laughter. Good Vibes only. Put up those fists for this one kiddos and get ready to stack em' up as you inch your way to the top.
Rated PG-13 Due to loose block in the crack, but don't be scared away the pro is actually really good and is not dangerous if approached with caution.
