Description:

The low Off Width roof crack on the left side of the cliff... just to the right of the Fixed rope leading to Hinterlands... Be creative to find your way up the "Boulder Problem" start for about 15 feet, i pulled the roof upside down... im tall, it might be different for short folks... after pulling the roof climb the awkward but much more moderate chimney to the 2 bolt anchor at the top... not really sure on the grade, it felt 5.12 but a letter grade would be hard to pick... being tall and having big feet probably helped so i will give it a 5.12b for starters, post your opinions on the grade if you climb it...

Descent Options:

lower off the anchor in the chimney...

4 out of 5 stars 1st ascent!!!

My hardest OW crack... I dream of routes like this with tricky powerful inverted beta... cleaned it on rappel and led it ground up on my second go...
