22m. Start just right of the crack of Caveman and boldly climb the gnarled slab to the ramp and runners. Continue in the same leftward-trending line, crossing Caveman and the Lunar Landscape crack; then make thin, bold moves to gain horizontal cracks. Continue more easily, but on increasingly vegetated ground, to saplings.
