Description

This crack is a nice-looking line, but ends up being much tricky than expected at its thin crux and dirty up high.  I suspect there was at some point a bolt protecting the crux (says there is one on the route in the books), but it is not there, and is going to be scary to lead as is.  Unfortunately, above the crux, the crack gets wide, dirty, and has many scary-looking wedged blocks in it, though it is an easier section.

Location
