Description

Scramble up to the ledge (or belay from below) to the obvious splitter crack (one of the Butte's few). Funky moves lead up to a couple thin hand jams which is the crux about 10 feet up. This is quickly followed by a perfect hand crack that slowly widens as the climb progresses. Certainly one of the best climbs at the Butte.

Single set of cams to 4 inches. Nuts and TCU's for anchor.

Location

Descend via Shark Fin Gully or downclimb Heart Route (5.6) if you are so inclined.

Protection

Full set of cams from TCU's to 4 inches. Nuts useful down low and for the anchor.
