Description

P1:

Climb up a flared OW dihedral with hand sized gear in the back to a ledge.  Continue up a finger sized shallow dihedral to another ledge. Climb the stembox with thin gear as pro to a ledge with a two bolt anchor. Be careful of the loose rock. (5.10)

P2:

Squeeze onto the ledge on the north side of the tower and then chimney up 20' to a horizontal crack that takes finger sized gear.  Continue 15' to the top of the shorter pillar, then up the 3 bolt ladder to a two bolt anchor.  (5.7 C1)

P3:

Climb past very soft rock up to the summit 10' and back down to the anchor. (5.5)

Location

This tower is obvious sticking out on a point a couple hundred yards SE from the confluence.  The route climbs the south side of the tower.
