Description
Nice crack with jams or a lie back start leads to a set of good horizontals. You can use the last of the horizontals (0.75-1 size) to build a nice anchor for top roping. The route finishes at a tree ledge where you can continue up on Check and Balance or step right to the rap anchors.
***The rap anchors have been moved and are now mossy hooks under a small roof just behind the trees. ~15' right of the climb.
Location
just right of rocket science, past the short crack (Z crack 5.10d) and past the gully you will see this splitter hand crack with a great fist jam start.
Protection
Bring two or three #3-#4 sizes and some tcus. Route can end at on top of the pinnacle (fun and preferred) but there is no place for an anchor without a static line. Otherwise, traverse right to a tree with slings 10 feet lower
