Description:
Finger crack that starts at a bulge next to a tree. Shimmy the tree offwidth style and place a few good nuts from a marginal stance up high. Short crux at the bottom leads to more moderate terrain. From a great stance just under a bulge up high place a small cam (make it bomber) The next few moves are the crux. Avoid placeing gear above you at this point as you'll need all the holds for your hands.

Hard warm up
Followed my partner on this one. It felt hard but did it clean.
Went back and lead it but I had to hand dog it. I still need to work out a little better the lower section right after the tree.

A bit contrived tree start to wonderful locking.
