Description
This lightning-bolt shaped finger crack on a slightly overhanging clean face is another high quality crack at the ONP. When you reach the end of the crack, hand traverse left to the arete, and mantle.
To finish, most will continue up 5.8 finger and hand cracks with good horizontal ledges to the left (shared with Climb 17), but it may be possible to step right of the arete and follow another seam (as shown in guidebook and in
Old New Place route guide. (I couldn't fit the route names/grades in anywhere so refer to the route descriptions here for corresponding number.) ).
Location
This climb is near the right side of the ONP. Find the obvious zigzagging finger crack, on a clean face just to the right of an obvious arete. It is climb #19 in the
Old New Place route guide. (I couldn't fit the route names/grades in anywhere so refer to the route descriptions here for corresponding number.)
Protection
Nuts & cams up to a #2 camalot, with doubles at finger crack sizes (#0.3 camalot and #0.4 camalot) highly recommended. 2-bolt anchor.
