Description

Begin about 150' left of the first pitch of The Road Not Taken, directly below the obvious left facing system with the large-ish roof.

Pitch One: (5.9, 60') Climb face with intermittent pro to large ledge below overhang.

Pitch Two: (5.10 b, 90') The FA party climbed off the ledge with a shoulder stand (the only aid on the route); then follow system up to a good hand crack, undercling left, and follow the Wafer Flake to a good ledge below large roof.

Pitch Three: (Crux, 70') Hand traverse left beneath large roof, rock around corner, and grunt through strenuous offwidth to large ledge with bolt anchor atop pitch 3 of The Road Not Taken.

Rappel, or follow T.R.N.T to summit.

Protection

Single set of cams, TCU's through big. Double #3, #4, #5 Camalots helpful.
