Grunt Work

Description

25-30' of squeeze/OW. Enticed?

The crack is bottoming, flared, ever so slightly overhung, and ultimately leads into a pinch point up high that prohibits further vertical shimmy-wiggling, yet is still too wide for a proper fist and too deep for a hand-fist. Rough.

Surpass the crux and pull on a series of awesome pockets to top out.


Keep in mind that this description is for the crack only. Stemming between the faces produces a much different experience, and feels more like a 5.8/9. Fun and worthwhile as well.

Protection

Protectable with big gear, or easily TR'd.

If leading, leave everything but the big stuff.
