Description

The Bible calls this 12a R/X. I'd emphasize the X if you sack up and give 'er a lead--likely this has seen very few over the years. Fantastic thin slab face. Hooting and hollering common when you latch the 1.5 pad "bucket" as it seems gargantuan compared to the crux holds.

Location

Smoothest part of the wall. Start on a block.

Protection

See Brad's comment. Small fiddly bits.

Or TR with a gear anchor.
