Description
After some cleaning and excavating of the crack, I led this line with all natural gear in September '13. We had found an old piton that came out quite easily. It seems obvious some "Old Man" had been up there training for the bigger walls of Eldo, The Black, and beyond.... They may have climbed up to the right where the crack system splits into a Y (looks like fun free climbing too). There is a large "boot-shaped flake" to the left of the crack that is hollow and gonging when tested. It seems to be solidly connected at its top, but avoiding it is advised (hoping to extract this unwanted feature...). There is solid gear to the right and can be avoided.... A splitter finger crack leads up through some exciting finishing moves to share the same 2-bolt anchor with
