I was feeling adventurous today and followed a dirty, unnamed right-leaning crack left of Legends of Limonite. It turned out to be a mess of bushwacking adventure with a surprisingly nice top-out (had to rap twice with a 60m rope, used the bolts from Bitter Ray of Sunshine for 2nd rap). Anybody know if that's been climbed before? With some cleaning it could be a decently fun 5.6. The upper section felt a little Gunks-ish. I always appreciate a top-out.
Did I unwittingly get an FA?

Re: Dirty Unnamed Crack at Great Wall
A 5.6 crack at a wall that's been established for about 10 years or so? Yeah, you probably got the first ascent.
