The Flake

Easily done in a single pitch this semi-classic requires being versed in a variety of techniques to succeed.

Begins in a chimney/offwidth (facing left is easier) which narrows higher and transitions into a flake which is lie-backed to it's end near a horizontal to a delicate slab climbing finish.

Four stars out of five.

Left side of the west face between
