3 out of 5 stars I must not know crack

This felt like the biggest mis-rate of my entire rock climbing career. I struggled up this climb like it was a 5.8-5.9. I don't climb cracks a whole lot, so maybe this would be cake for a good crack climber, so I'm not going to rate it up. Jam on Jam is a totally appropriate name. I climbed it without falls, but I used leg bars, arm bars, foot jams, hand jams, lay backs, anything I could. It was kind of fun, if you like pain (and my friends couldn't send it :)
We used our top rope from Turtle piss, which made for quite an angle on the belay rope; there are no anchors right at the top of this route.

I thought it was a pretty difficult 5.5... Fun route though.
