Description:

Starts 30' right of Pebble Power. A strenuous, right-leaning hand/finger crack leads to easier climbing on more positive holds, then up the face to a bulge (second crux), or bypass the bulge to the left for an easier finish. NOTE: Tape gloves or hand jammies are a plus for the sharp, pebbly crack at the beginning.

4 out of 5 stars good as faith

probably 9+, nowhere near 10b. excellent route. don't need to tape, there's really only one place for a hand jam and it isn't necessary.

The start is the tough part on this climb; getting your balance right while leaning backwards and moving up is a challenge. Once you hit the top of the crack, though, it's pretty smooth sailing. Hats off to Frank N. for leading this one.
