Description
The original/left extension to Crankbugs. Committing moves off the Crankbugs anchor bring you left through an airy yet tame traverse before you are met with the temperature dependent crux. A bouldery, low percentage move on good stone deposits you beneath the mini roof crack, traverse back right until you can pull over the roof & continue up & left through a cryptic finish that’s not too difficult once figured out. Bolted by Alex Kirkpatrick ~2014, this was an open project until Jack Hereford sent the route in December of 2017.
