Description:

Hand crack on face, around the corner left of Hackberry I just dropped the rating to 5.8, which is what the book says. Others say easier than that. Can't believe someone listed it as a 9. Much easier than Hackberry which went at "5.9-" on the Hell score sheet.

3 out of 5 stars caution up top

Near the top of this climb there's a rather large plate that looks tempting to grab (just under the anchors, to the right). Don't use it, it moves. It can, and will, fall on someone.

Otherwise, it's fun, but a little sandy on the bottom part.
If you have really thin/small hands, the bottom jams are more like fist jams than hand jams.
