Description

This is a great route that probably doesn't get done a whole lot. There are two starts. One directly below the crack which is probably 5.10+ and protected by a bolt, and one climbing over the white spot just to the right, 5.8R. After the crux beginning just follow the wide crack to the top of Elephant Rock. The climbing is really fun with huge buckets all around to avoid using actual offwidth techniques in the crack. The best descent is to walk off the back side of Elephant rock or rappel near Rye Crisp if people are not on those routes.

Location

In between Beware of Nesting Egos and The Pygmies Got Stoned.

Protection

To make it not so runout you would want to bring a set of cams with a few extra wide pieces. Also, be sure to save a few cams from #1 camalot to #3 camalot sizes for the belay.
