Description:
15' left of the corner where the south quarry meets the north quarry us a wide crack with a arete to the left that tops out about 3/4 of the way up. Climb the easy crackto the top of the arete then staqying close to the thin seem on the right, make a few harder face moves to the top, if you stray left out of the thin seem, you lower the rating reach . If you want to lead this you will have to go to the left on top of the arete to a wide crack by a small tree, you'll need a 4" or larger cam or a #11 BD hex will fit a little lower.

Now this is what climbing is all about. What a fun climb! Les led it and was a little concerend from the top of the pillar where you have to go left around the corner to a larger crack to finish. The face directly above the main crack makes it a tougher finish after a good easy start.
