Damage Done

Description

An uncharacteristically crisp and parallel crack down low (hands to offwidth to hands) leads to a rest at a small flake ledge. Once collected, dance up 2 bolts worth of  techy crystal climbing to the anchor. This climb packs in a lot of variety in a short pitch and is quite worth the effort.

The Kelman guidebook gives this climb 11c and Zach gives it 10+. 11a is my vote.

Location

This is the climb on the left side of the upper tier, nearly directly above and facing the same direction as

Plumb Line

. Look for the non-flaring, steep crack that peters out to 2 bolts up on the slab.

Protection

Nothing smaller than a 0.75, a big cam is nice for the pod, 2 quickdraws. There is a 2 bolt anchor up top that will require rappelling.
