The crux comes right away. The thin dirt-filled finger crack has thin pro and moves. When I climbed this, it felt a bit harder, since I was digging pine needles out of the crack with my nut tool so I could place pro and get my fingers in. Once past the offending pine tree, the climbing gets a lot cleaner. The crack system eventually becomes a chimney. Belay on a ledge at 180'. Another 180' pitch leads to the top on more grainy 5.7 terrain.
