Description:
This is a beautiful looking route, as seen from the Sail, but looks can be deceiving, and in this case...they are. Located a few hundred feet uphill from the Egg, it's about a 15 minute scramble with a bit of bushwhacking to reach this crag from the top of the Egg. You could hike up the Sail approach gully...but why? Windjammer starts by the Pine tree at the base, and has a nice hand crack in it's middle section. However, the rock quality goes from fair to poor at the top, making the delicious looking diagonal crack most unenjoyable. It might improve with more traffic...but due to location, this seems unlikely. Bail from slings atop the verical section.
