Description

Although Rossiter rated this line and the one to its right more conservatively than I and my partner thought they should be, he also did not show where these lines started, and thus, we feel he may not have done them the same way or had complete information on these routes. We felt this one was 5.9, not 5.8....

Climb up a few flakes to the left-most of the two nearly parallel left-slanting cracks on the West end of the North face. Place [gear], and continue up and left until the crack reaches the arete. Move up and right to the right crack (5.8) and then to the top on face holds (5.6, PG-13) or left around the corner and follow a winding handcrack (5.8) left and then back right to the summit.

Location

This route is the second crack down and left (East) of the NW arete of the Northern summit of the Jamcrack Spire.

Protection

A set of stoppers and cams to 4" plus some longer slings.
