Beckey route variation
I took the 5.7 hand crack variation mentioned in the Falcon Guide to Wa. After the initial chimney go right 20ft or so to a splitter crack. Follow it 30ft up to a small alcove and belay here. Above the alcove the crack doglegs up and left for 20ft to the lip of the face and emeges just below the roof traverse on the normal route.
