Description

Two pitch adventure right up the gut of the north face. Some sections are stellar while others can be chossy, vegetated, and hard to protect at times. But could clean up.

  1. 5.10+ 150' Start by eyeing the splitter hand/fist crack in the center of the north face at about 25'. Figure out how to gain this. After enjoying that jog right to start into the main dihedral system. Climb with caution somewhere around the middle of this. Steep hand crack finishes this long pitch on ledge to the left.

  2. 5.8 80' Continue up the easiest path to the summit notch and summit (left side).

Location

Plumb line up middle of North face. Descend down other side into gully and scramble or rappel down gully to the West.

Protection

Double rack to BD #3, one #4, plus nuts Natural anchors
