Description Suggest change

Solo for Swallows is a nice finger and hand crack just to the right of the classic Medium Cool. Start off an exposed ledge with some delicate moves, and then follow the finger/hand crack up to the next ledge. Once at the next ledge, plug in some gear, and crank up the upper finger crack to a 2 bolt anchor.

This has nice movement and positioning high above the little valley floor.

See the main page of Blair II for a photo of the climb.

Location Suggest change

This is the crack line just to the right of Medium Cool and left of A Thing of Beauty. From the climber's left, scramble up to the same starting ledge as Medium Cool.

Protection Suggest change

Fingers to hands. A #4 C4 is nice to have as an anchor. Take care with placing gear in the upper finger crack due to pods of poor rock.
