Description
Vertical crack about 50 ft. to left of RR bolts. Small alcove, tricky start to vertical crack section. From the first main ledge head up into right leaning crack to top, past tree and easy climbing. Belay. Descend with single line rap from RR anchors.
The start is crux and the first section of vertical crack has a few hard moves. Easy ground gets you to the crux off width right leaning crack that will remind you of Sedona climbing.
Location
Up the trail, around to the left to the north facing alcove of RR. Past the massive bolted roof and ascend the obvious crack system that leads to the top of the formation. Belay from a comfortable stance on top and then rap off the 2 bolt anchor for the bolted project, Raptor's Roost.
Protection
Doubles to #3, single #4. I didn't use any nuts and probably used about 1 1/2 rack.
