MapWhiskey Crack
Description
This long, pumpy, left leaning crack is an area classic and will ensure that you have no skin left on your fingers when you leave Whiskey. Start as low as possible on the right end of the crack. Using positive pods in the crack, heel and toe hooks, and as many energy-conserving techniques as you can, follow the long crack to its end.
Location
Beneath the imposing roof of Vulture View Rock, but on a separate boulder. Located directly on the trail from the Entrance Area. Obvious crack rising right to left. Walk off.
Protection
Quite a few pads. The landing is very poor at the beginning and 2/3 of the way through. The climber is never more than 5 feet off the ground, fortunately.
