Description

It is possible to break this up into 2 short pitches or combine them into 1 with a 60-meter rope.

Pitch 1: 5.10 - Begin on the arete ~20ft to the left of the beginning of BAC Crack. A small cam will get you started for protection. After a few moves on the right side of the arete, begin working left onto the face. a bolt and another small or medium cam protect the final moves onto a small perch. Optional belay 

Pitch 2: 5.10 - Begin working up the left-angling blocky terrain until you find yourself beneath a vertical wall. Clip the bolt and power up the short left-facing corner (crux.) Follow the natural line of weakness to a large pine tree on top of the wall.

Location

Continue northward (up) the broad gully from Miss Piggy and Birth of the Cool for another 100 meters (300 feet). The route is on the southern end of the next rock wall to the East (climber's right.) Locate obvious large crack half way up with a roof. This is BAC Crack. Umbers begins on the arete ~20ft to the right. 

Protection

Single rack to 3 inches with doubles in small/micro cams.
