Bad A$$
This is one of THE most sustained climbs at the(long)crux I've ever been on. Need small gear ,and don't use the small finger lock holds to place gear, you'r 2nd will cuss you.It is an absolutly great small crack to climb, P2 ( 170' ) let's you relax and enjoy the view. Beware trailing a 2nd rope ,at P2 it can hang in the large hollow sounding flake.
