Description

This is the thin crack to the right of Slimmer Pickings. Start up an easy juggy crack to blocks. Once on the block you'll be at the start of the thin crack. Climb the thin crack to the top using locks and edges.

I did not lead this route but it climbs very well and was quite fun! Lead would be Bold, but it does seem to take thin gear. Miramontes gives this route a R rating

You can TR this route from the Slim pickings anchor, make a low 5th class traverse to the top of the thin crack, set a directional and have some fun!

Location

To the right of slimmer pickings, maybe 20 yards?

Protection

Thin rack, view Bob's comment about the fixed pins.
