Description:

A beautiful 50ft crack/lieback that sits inside a dihedral. The crack gets progressively wider from bottom to top and has spit out many, many climbers. There is a link to a picture of the route above. Measured the route with my 60 meter rope, and the climb is exactly half the distance from the midpoint to the end of the rope. 50ft even.

Descent Options:

walk off

5 out of 5 stars pumpy and sustained

you need at least 3 or maybe 4 big cams for this one. I ended up pushing up a #5 camalot as I went along the last third of the climb. Still fun, hope to do this one in better style in the future
