Description

Interesting moves.

Start up initial almost-vertical 9-ft section of the obvious crack, then partway diagonal Right up crack. But instead of continuing to the top right end at the wider deeper left-diagonal crack, leave the crack and head directly up to bulge on left side of top vertical crack (avoid the alcove junction).  . . . (Variation: Continue to the top right end of crack to reach the deeper left-diagonal crack (5.7) and join the next route to the right).

Finish up left side of top vertical crack.

warning: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber or someone setting up top anchor.

. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2018. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).

Location

See the obvious crack starting on L side below high bulge, and running diagonal R almost all the way across the face.
