Still the only route I've climbed that you couldn't just walk to the top instead.

4 out of 5 stars Crack ahoy

The least painful and most solid jams possible. Throw hexes around for extra credit.

The crack was a little wet in places after several days of rain but still do-able. The face dries quickly. Great gear and climbing
