Description

This is a short hand crack with high feet and good hand jams to begin. Throw a jam over the constriction, and you're home free after a few fist jams up top. There is a painful knee jam optional.

Location

It is on the south side of the Nautilus, under the parabolic slab rappel and just to the left of

Blood Sport

. There are lots of gear anchor options for a TR.

Protection

The route takes BD #0.75 to a #4 up top. A BD #1 fits perfectly just below constriction.
