This route follows the obvious S/SE facing crack/chimney. The route begins with a easy fifth class groove/chimney on the west face. Traverse left to right from the top of this chimney to a prominent ledge below the crack (a move of 5.6).

Climb the crack which begins as fists, opening up in 25 feet to a squeeze. I burrowed horizontally through the squeeze - pinched at the bottom, like half closed bombay doors - similar in width to the Harding Slot on Astroman. Belay at two bolt anchor from which you can also rap to the deck.

If you can't squeeze through the slot this route might be 5.12. Therefore this route is pretty much ungradeable...
