Description:

2nd "pitch", or upper section that can be accessed by chimney behind crag to the right of Corn Flakes. The Pockets starts at ledge looking up at cracks, just right of Right Angle Crack. Climbs on pockets past a bolt to the ledge. Pass another bolt leading to finger and hand sized jams. Tops out just right of bolts. Could be a bit of a swing if you fall near/at the top. One of the best cracks in the area. Very fun.
