Description:
A fun introduction to crack climbs in the Wichitas. Steep beginning with a slabby finish. Climb a wide crack in a right facing dihedral to a splitter hand sized crack that spilts a nice slab.

Not bad
For a weak gym climber it was pretty sustained at top, but some pretty cool moves below.

Fun climb
Finally got around to leading this route! Really fun climb with a perfect finger crack after the roof. Takes small gear in the crack, fairly run out at top, the crack gets dirty with nowhere to place gear, but the terrain is very easy.

Knee drop goodness
Simple route with basic but important move, don't really need to use the drop knee if you're tall enough though

Fun and easy
Went up this route when it was really windy, could barely hear my belayer. This route really helped me to begin trusting my feet on slab near the top when the crack got so narrow I had to pull my feet out of it.
