Traversing from the Dike Gulley is easy but not very well protected. The crack eats gear. Medium to large cams.

Nice corner!
If this were lower and you didn't have to climb either a gross gulley or heady unprotected climbing to get there, it would see a lot more traffic. Since it is where it is, is is covered in lichen.
