Description

Start at the low point of the trail, 45-60' before the upturned tree that marks the base of A Winter's Tale. Start in front of the thin twisted tree and climb directly up the initial 50' face. Continue up and slightly to the right in order to pass on the right the roof 2/3 of the way up the cliff. Continue still further up and more to the right in order to climb behind the final large left-facing flake/corner that leads to the top. The first ascent was done in three pitches while exploring other route possibilities on this section of wall. There are two very large, comfortable ledges if a multi-pitch outing is what you're looking for. On the other hand, double 60-meter ropes would get you to the top in one, long, high-quality pitch. - Indy's Online Guide
