Description:

Start the same as Unkown 5.6, but head right after large block on first ledge. Traverse to the right and get some good gear in the horizontal. (Get good gear here, next pro is 10-15ft. above) Do a few face moves to reach the top of the first flake. Continue up to reach a second right facing flake and follow to a large ledge. (Use some caution here, a fall on the initial face moves above will put you on the large ledge). From the ledge, climb up the slabby face to reach a few good hand holds and a discontinuous horizontal crack. Place some gear and climb to the top.
