Description
Upper crack looks interesting -- and it is (but not that interesting).
Start up left side of little wall and past either side of tree (using tree roots or trunk is OK). Walk up to the next (slightly taller) little wall. Up that wall to small pointy rock on left side of tree (using tree roots or trunk is OK). Walk up about 30 feet to wide crack / R-facing corner on left side of upper gully. Up the crack, then walk a couple steps. Finish up sloping rock along left side of crack in its center.
warning: Loose rock is still a concern here. Belayer or other members of party should not stand anywhere near underneath the climber.
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
Location
Find the wide dirty gully which forms the left edge of the low left section of the main rock of Manayunk. Spot left-facing corner / wide crack on which forms left side of the top section of that gully. Look below left from that crack, and see small eight-foot high wall with pointy rock and big tree on right side of its top, on left side of lower part of gully. Below that at left side of bottom of gully is a little six feet high wall with another tree on top.
