Description
This route starts up the dihedral formed by the SW corner of Sharksfin abutting the N face of Pinpoint. You can approach this by worming your way up a chimney-like system under a large boulder to a large ledge just off the SW corner of Sharksfin/NW corner of Pinpoint. Alternatively, we found this route by rappelling past it as we descended from the anchors off the SW corner of Sharksfin to a ledge a short half-rope down.
From this ledge, stem up the obvious dihedral on the right. From a notch move left onto the pretty face past a couple bolts. Find a interesting bulge crux above. Finish on big holds to the right. Rap off the 2 bolt anchor.
