Cusak's Crack***
5.8 - 4 pitches (5.4: 5.8: 5.5: 5.5)
excellent rock, excellent gear
This is the Hump's classic route. The amount of fixed gear in the crack attests to this. Climb up the Cusak start to reach the 2 pin belay. This route is the left hand and more imposing of the two central cracks that run through the upper face. This route will put Bear's Hump into the proper proportions. The main pitch offers excellent gear, very good rock, and is very sustained compared to other routes in the area. ON top of the crux pitch you can find a two pin belay, but an extra #4 or #5 stopper is recommended. One can exit right or continue up the Cusak Finish.
