Description

This is the first among three large cracks situated immediately to the left of The Elevator Shaft. You have two choices at the end: either continue your ascent directly towards the trees or veer right onto the ice. Bring huge gear. You'll for sure want a #6, and possibly some big bros or Valley Giants. 

Location

Just left of The Elevator Shaft -- large chimney. 

Protection

Large cams.
