Description
Pitch 1 starts in an alcove with plenty of friable rock (watch your head). Do a series of moves up to a traversing roof then under it with just enough feet to keep it sane. Pitch 2 goes up and around some stacked blocks, then on to a traversing horizontal crack, with no feet really, but once again just enough to get you by the exposed piece, then more jamming up steep corners to the next belay ledge, which isn't much more than the top of a block just big enough for your feet. Pitch 3 starts out steep again, finds a roof, traverses out and left, with just enough footholds to make it possible. Getting past a large loose block to the belay is a tremendous relief. The 4th pitch (5.7) is low angle and takes you up to the summit. Sort of a let down considering the first three pitches had absolutely wonderful 5.10 moves.
Note: Some loose rock. Good climbing.
