Description

This is the odvious corner crack on the very left side of the wall which is a fun warm up for the more harder routes.

Location

This is the very first route on the very left side. It is the odvious corner crack bellow and to the left of the roof.

Protection

Pro to 2". The only fixed anchor that can be accessed for this climb is the anchor at the top of the climb “Jousting with the Jackal”. If you are climbing "Lock Buster" you can get to these fixed anchors by continuing up the seam and continue up to the top of “Jousting with the Jackal” (12a). You can establish a trad anchor at the top of “Lock Buster” if you move to climber's left to a substantial ledge where it is possible to set a belay on thin gear. From there you can walk off, or if feeling insecure, can do a mini traverse pitch to flatter ground.
