Jbak: My description from 1982 says "sustained and beautiful" but I was probably just excited to find actual crack moves on Mt. Lemmon.  I can't remember why it's done as 2 pitches, maybe because of a big ledge half way up.

 From Sam: P1: Starts in an overhanging right-facing dihedral finger crack, then you get a short but nice offwidth section, then finish with some fist jams to top out on a big ledge.  Belay off tree.P2: finger crack starts about chest-height, then gradually widens to fists up to a rest ledge, then you have the option of going straight up to more offwidth or move right to hand/fist crack.  Nice big belay tree up top.  Walk off.You definitely want to to this as two short pitches; there are rope-snagging boulders at the top of the first pitch which would thwart linking them together.  Most sections require actual jamming and crack technique, though you can get away with liebacking a lot of it.  Granite is sharp and grainy, tape or gloves recommended.
