Top Rope ascent by:
Hard Crack
The start of The Fang, or Fang, can be a little challenging if you do not have much crack climbing experience. once past the crux, which is before the chimney, the climb is fairly easy.

Onsight ascent by:
Good fun
The crux is clearly at the bottom, then you get to climb up a fun chimney.

Not a squeeze
Totally disapointed. A sweet (though short) locker finger crack leads to what looks like a squeeze chimney. It's not, you can easily climb the face (5.6ish) on the outside of the chimney. Traversed across the face to reach some anchor bolts out right. That was ok, traversed low to make it harder for more interesting climbing.

A little tricky
Getting to the wide crack is the crux, once your there protecting is easy and the climbing is fun.

worthy
I used it as my mental warm-up for the Fracture. don't be afraid of the wide section, it's not bad.
