This is a steep thin crack.  Start with a bouldery move along a seam to reach a horizontal 12' up.  Fixed pin here.  Make a couple of crux moves along the thin crack, passing another pin before reaching a second horizontal at 30'.  The crack continues until just below the summit, where a mantle puts you on top.  Mostly steep face climbing with crack protection.

Alchemy

The Melon Cracker

This is the steep hand crack just right of Alchemy. It starts in a double crack with good pro. It finishes in the wide hand crack straight above. Pro is excellant and the crack is cleaner than it looks, clean brown/gray varnish jams the whole way!
