The Lost Crack

Description

This is the beautiful, overhanging crack on the right side of the corridor between the two buttresses. The climbing is a cool mix of jamming and liebacking with your feet in the crack most of the way. When the crack runs out at the top, exit on perfect patina. This is one of the nicest hard cracks I have seen anywhere. This should be on everyone's hard ticklist for Vedauwoo, though it will be especially appealing for those looking to make the transition from hard sport climbing to hard crack climbing.

Location

This is the gorgeous crack on the right side of the corridor.

Protection

Small brass nuts up through a #1.75 Friend. I used a small non-production, hybrid Zero (Z3/Z4) that was crucial for the top piece, though an equivalent hybrid Alien (black/blue) or C3 would also likely work. Bolts up top, placed to force pulling the lip.
