Revival
Mar 17, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Early season climbing means dirt and leaves more than crack. A great climb to confirm you're out of shape from the winter. Piton above the bolt on topo is no longer there. 80m rope reaches ground for rap With Yi

Direct Route
Mar 16, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Pitch 3 was all red biting ants all the time once I did the 5.7 mantel. Ended up pulling on cams to get by them as fast as possible but they were all the way through the "chimney" and also all over lunch ledge. Wind chill was picking up and fat man chimney was not looking pleasant and the ants took it out of me so dow we went. Both the topo here and Sloan's topos have some issues but def the topo on this page is far superior With Yi 5.9 corner in P2 was short but fun but the rest up to lunch ledge felt more like alpine peak bagging than a proper route. Bring new webbing for rap stations next time
