Description:

Fairly stout for its grade. Start at the base, up a thin crack up to a slabby area. From here, most climbers go left up the slab and traverse underneath the "brown flake" (possible to get mid-sized pieces here too). Once reaching the right-hand crack, layback the flake to the top! It's thin fingers. Look for the crack to close up off and on. Reach high for open flares in the crack. Protects well. Once reaching the end of the crack, go right approximately 10 feet to chains above Strategic Defense. Enjoy.
