Description:
Start just to right of Hangloose in obviuos large crack running straight up to top. P1:Very easy and straight forword, perfect for beginning trad leader. Belay in notch below overhang. P2:Start up easily protected crux overhang and continue along crack and face to top. Some airy exposure makes it a very fun pitch and climb overall, I'd give it 2 stars.

Ascent Note
Large bees nest at belay point. Rather docile with cool weather, but opted over to "For those that hate chimneys" and then back to crack above.
