Warning! Fragile flake! Up the right thin arete of the wide crack. I'm putting this route up here as it's the most obvious line but it's not safe to climb. I removed a loose block behind the thin high flake but the remaining thin flake isn't particularly solid. An easy climb but you might end up like season 2 Tasha Yar if you climb it.
