Description
Berserker is a wide roof crack at White Rock, and there aren't too many like this, so it's worth checking out, if you're into that sort of thing.
Lieback the clean thin-hands crack in the left-facing corner to a stance below a roof. This is one of the best liebacking corners in White Rock. The roof is offwidth-size, confusing, strenuous, and harder than it looks (but easier than it's nominally rated- 5.11c/d), and protects well with #4 and #5 camalots. After the roof, the climbing is much easier to the top if you stay right. Instead, step left and pull through a 2nd roof on hand cracks for full value.
Location
Berserker starts with the obvious left-facing lieback crack to a roof crack near the right end of the ONP.
Protection
Cams from #0.75 camalot to #5 camalot. I'd recommend a #5 if you have it, but it can protect okay with gear only up to a #4. 2-bolt anchor.
