Description
This offwidth offers a great lieback the entire way up with a nice ledge to rest on in the middle. Large cams are a must. Use a #4 cam near the start, a #2 or #3 in a narrow point after that, and then 3 or more #6 cams for the remainder of the route. Lieback most of the route.
Near the top, chimneying the offwidth is technically possible but very narrow (less than the length of a helmet). Lieback is recommended, but the only protection will be from a #6 until you reach a horizontal crack on the right side of the offwidth that will readily take a .4 X4 cam.
Location
The offwidth crack across from Environmental Impact but left and around the corner from Reserved Seating.
Protection
Bring lots of big cams. A #2 or a #3, a #4 for the start, and 3 or more #6s is recommended. Bumping only 2 #6 cams is pushing it and just 1 is very runout. Bring a .4 X4 or similar a horizontal crack near the top.
