Large Crack

Description

It has only taken 20 years to get up here, and when we do we escape with one of the easiest lines on the wall. Large Crack isn't really climbed that way for long since much of it can be climbed as a dihedral or a face with gear in the crack. Begin Large Crack on the left side of Rebel Wall, just left of the big tree. There is a roof with a right-facing dihedral on the left end and this has a crack in it that is Large Crack. The climbing overall seemed pretty simple and the gear available pretty much where ever it was wanted. Turning the corner at the roof reminded me of

Tagger

but with even better Friend placements. The rock was solid but still shed some surface debris. As an intro, Large Crack was acceptable and interesting enough to entice me back to the other lines on the wall.

Protection

Do this as one long pitch with a walk off on the left and you will need a 50m rope, a couple of extra slings, a rack full of wired stoppers, a full set of Friends, and supplemental #2 and #3 Camalots. 120 feet.
