Description:
Climb the obvious crack through the roof of the cave, a little left of center. Either start left and follow the crack system for an easier better protected start, or power straight up through the large slick pockets to the V-shaped wrist jam. Continue through the undercling to large positive holds above the lip of the roof. Either left or right to finish on easier ground. To get a better length pitch, continue up the irregular crack directly above (Bow, 15).

Ascent Note
Well, I got beaten up....again.
Notes to self (do not read if wishing to onsight!):
1) tape up left wrist. It hurts a bit less this way, and you wont loose quite as much skin.
2) place #0.5 cam before wrist jam, #3 after wrist jam, and another #0.5 in the horizontal crack. #3.5 tri-cam fits nicely in the crack below the succulant.

The most painful route I have ever climbed!! The wrist jam may leave bruises, but it is solid. Do not be tempted to put too big of a piece in the jam spot though, you will still need room for your wrist. A must-do though!
