Description

After reaching the ledge on top of the detached slab, bust a dead vertical finger crack sidepull, with unique edges to flake jugs. Top out by connecting to the top 2 bolts of Virginia.

Location

Start at the base of the detached slab either on the white band side (protects with some small cams, harder variation), or on the south side via a hand crack (easier variation).
