Description

The Pagel/Kollath guide : Superior Climbs (out of print) describes it as a "flake, face, and jam crack" but doesn't show a detailed topo.I climbed up to an undercling and traversed right to a flake with a wide crack (4"). At the top of the flake I traversed left on a ledge to a topout crack. This seems to match the Pagel description and looks like the most enjoyable climb in that immediate area. 

Location

Just right of the access gully that is left of Beginner's Crack. The climb starts on the upper tier. Pagel decribes it as "about thirty feet to the left of Simple Corner".

Protection

Gear to a #4 Camalot. Extra 3-4" gear for the bottom if you like to sew it up. Trees on top for anchors. The trees are not huge and the one closest to the climb is dead.
