MapDescription
This is a great leadable climb. Don't be fooled by that 5.3 rating though, due to heavy traffic the holds are all polished and slick as marbles.
According to the guidebook, the first part of the climb you should head up the face climb to the left of the crack, then move into the crack once you're on the easier ground.
If you head right up the crack though, it is definitely quite challenging, and feels more like 5.8ish for the first few moves till you're up it.
Enjoy the harder start, then scamper up the low angle ramp to the vertical exit. Good fun.
Location
Hades Heights, in the crack upstream from nubble face.
