Comments: My partner Kia and I did this Saturday, April 19. We started the approach at 530AM and summited as the sun was setting.
The descent gully is a nightmare when its filled with snow. You'll have to rap the entire gully (7-10 rappels), down climb wet ledges, squeeze between the snow edge and the rock, and do other crappy stuff to get down it.
If attempting the Sentinel when there is snow in the gully, you may be better off rapping the route you came up, especially if you bring twin or double rop... more >>

Comments: This is a hard slab climb which involves big moves to small holds. There really isn't much smearing involved as one poster mentions, its more edging. The climb is technical and much more difficult to lead than toprope. It helps significantly if you are flexible!

Comments: You can rap the route with one 60m, unlike what the description says.
There is a bolted belay/rap station on the ledge above the 5.7 section, at the start of the hard climbing (the first 50ft section which the fellow above refers to as the crux).
We used one 60m rope to rappel to this station from the chains at the top, which does barely make it. A second rappel from here will get you to the ground.
