Description:

A really nice route. There are two obvious cracks at Echo Dome. Crack Pipe is the leftmost one when facing the cliff. To start, climb a short face protected by a couple of bolts to reach the crack. Climb the crack and then face climb pretty much straight up to the anchors when it ends. The last section is a little run-out but really good. FA: Aaron Gibson, Jason Magness
