Description Just left of the large cleft in the face, you will see a bolt about fifteen feet above. Climb to the bolt and continue up cracks to the top. Finish right of the summit block.I found this to be quite an enjoyable route.
Protection Standard rack with one bolt (1/2") at the start.
The original bolt gone bad

| good route. Old bolt as of 11/2008, but not critical. |

| Kevin Powell and I replaced the old 1/4 inch bolt today with a 1/2 inch diameter stainless.
Found two new 3/8 inch bolts at the top that could be used for a rap anchor (although they need rings or chains). A 70 meter rope would work nicely here. |

| thought this was a fun thought provoking route. Bring a few smaller to medium cams to supplement the bolts. Hardest move is getting over the small roof bulge before the final crack to the summit. Have fun! |
