Short but AWESOME route up the summit block above Rational Expectations & Magali's Arete. The crux is just below the second bolt (and is VERY well protected). The crux involves smearing your feet on the featureless face to the left of the arete. Following the crux, make a big move on the steepest part of the arete (5.9) and continue up the arete to the top.A fantastic summit awaits you!!...[more] Browse More Classics in CA
