Description Suggest change

Overhanging start with enlarging crack that trends to the right near the finish. "Hands" size crack then widens. The crack itself is angled into the rock rather than straight in as well. The guidebook says it is a 5.10a. If this was the grade assigned in 1972 it would make sense as to why the climb feels much more difficult

Location Suggest change

Left around the corner of platinum plus is an overhanging right trending crack that shares a finish with Platinum Plus. Be careful getting to the route as it is on a cliff face. if setting up a top rope it is safest to be belayed to the anchor bolts. (shares anchor bolts with Platinum Plus)

Protection Suggest change

hands and larger cams. or top rope it, be careful of rope drag
