Description 

Start on Pine Tree ledge about 30' left of the start to the Dislocation standard route. Climb obvious crack systems straight up to a ledge (optional belay) and follow more nice cracks up and left (where the standard route traverses right) to a belay nearly 60m ropelength up. From here climb a corner to a ledge, a short face section, and another corner to the top. An excellent and mellow adventure.


Protection 

Gear to 2", doubles if doing as two long pitches.

the alt route directly one pitch lower brings you up through a tree, but makes for a great warm up
