Description:

The crack running up the left edge of the cave. Jam the crack through a small roof, then up the dihedral to easier but loose climbing. Finish straight up over the bush or to the ledge on the right for a good belay spot. Keep an eye out for the "sword in the stone", an old piton just above the dihedral. For a better, more consistant route, at the top of the dihedral (just below the bush) traverse right to Uncompramising Vulture, and follow that to the top.

I suck! ......and was hungover. Head right just before the bush, and follow Uncomprimising Vulture to the top for a much better quality and consistant route.
