Description:

Incredibly difficult climbing up an incepient crack. Be careful not to plug up crucial holds with gear. This is a real test piece both physically and mentally. The Lawyer/Haas books gives it 11a, the Mellor Guide; a straight 11. I'm inclined to concur with Mellor on this one.

Descent Options:

Rap from same fixed anchors as PT Pillar
