Mark's Crack

Description

This is a super-fun trad climb, with nice holds. It looks like a chimney, but you'll use some cool face holds as well. Get off those crappy slabs, and do this route!

Location

This ascends the wide crack on the Whipping Post Wall.

Protection

Big cams, up to #3 Camalot will do you.

Per

Angela Lee

: if you are new to trad climbing / crack climbing, one of each #1, #2, #5 Camalots and 2 #0.75s, 2-4 #3s, and 2-4 #4s. Be mindful of the tricky flares in the crack. You can also climb with a single rack from #0.75 to 4. The anchor has two Mussys to the left of the crack now.
