Description:

The left and longer of two cracks starting on the underside of the prominent roof. Turn the roof and follow same crack to the top. Easier to do just the roof by starting from the rap anchors atop High Strung and begin with a traverse across, instead of starting from the ground via High Strung and exiting right onto a ramp to get to this roof crack. Rated .10c in old guidebook, but .11a in new guidebook and what seems like the consensus.

Descent Options:

Downclimb counterclockwise around the summit boulder block and downstem easy chimney and circle around to the left back to the anchors of High Strung.
