Description:

Beautiful crack just left of Barbecue the Pope (shares anchor). Burly down low, great pro, perfect hand jams up high, with a sneaky flared groove at the top.

4 out of 5 stars fun gear lead

Fun 5.10a crack. Some hollow sounding placement options in the beginning that made me suspicious, but plenty of gear choices even for my limited rack. My first onsight gear lead. Very fun.

4 out of 5 stars First 10a trad

Middle section needed 2 inch gear. I had to walk a cam about 27 feet. I had used my two #1 BDs and another 2" low, all I had left was a #2 BD.

The top flare wasn't as hard as I was told. Total length = 80 ft.

3 out of 5 stars New Testament

Did it on TR, it looks easy from the base but the crux totally kicked my ass
