Greatness Chimney

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

The first problem is squeezing in behind the twin pine trees and making your first move off the ground in that cramped space. There's actually two chimneys stacked on top of each other separated by a narrow slit that you have to climb around to get from the lower chimney to the upper one (minor crux). The bottom chimney is easy stemming using obvious features. The upper chimney is more awkward with fewer features for stemming. Finish at the level of Cracker Barrel or continue up and finish right of Greatness.

(This is a named climb in Knower and is #15 in S/M.)

Location

From the saddle between Great Tower and Sun-top Tower, look for the obvious chimney protected by twin pine trees.
