Description:
Follows the main crack about 10' to the right of "Place Your Bet", towards the end of that wall section; but staying in the crack is a trap, especially towards the top. There is an interesting variation starting on the buttress at the base; and faces to the right are a lot harder.

Hang Dog ascent by:
First ever trad lead attempt.
Great climb I have climbed many times before. Decided to give it a go on my first trad lead. Much harder than I remembered, but it may have just been the nerves. Ok gear placements, and a few awkward stances, but overall a great route, especially for TR.

Nice crack
Upper crack is harder than it looks because it forces you out
