I've witnessed some neat things on this one.
This is the roof crack third pitch of Journey to Ixtlan. I once watched a great climber take a long fall on a Dunn era hex and sling (it held, I removed it). Then my friend Dennis Strom, in a fit of madness, onsighted.
You nearly always loose you feet on the last pull around the roof. It is possible to go left or right at the Y. Left is easier.
