Description:

Low angled wide crack on south end of the rock, right in front of parking spaces. Affectionate OW start, then hand jam and stair step way up to top. Grovel underneath top boulders to anchor to their undersides. Get dirty!

Descent Options:

Walk across top to far north end and downclimb east face near that far north end.
