Rockfax Description
A hard and usually dirty crack that should be approached with caution. Start just left of Kern Knotts Chimney and climb to below the steep V-cracks in the upper wall. A bulge prevents entry to the left-hand crack which proves to be a stubborn problem, even when clean. © Rockfax

βeta: Frankly dangerous to have this as a 3* e2 in frcc guide. Sustained and pretty serious in the middle section, lots of slopy holds that are probably never clean enough to feel good. Shit route, do something else
