Access is always an issue here. MORE INFO >>>
Please do not litter and observe all regulations. We had to fight to regain access at one time, and we don't want to lose the privilege again. Local ethics and refuge regulations are that no bolting is permitted unless expressly authorized by the park. Leave the hammer and nails at home, no fixed gear please. Everything will go clean.
This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

Description Climb the hanging, inset crack, and hanging corner right of Old #7; aid the friable roof to gain it (hooks, 1 LA). The crack (5.9) ends atop the small ledge shared by Old #7. Step right on exposed free moves (5.7) and climb expanding rock to a brief, but clean hairline crack. Sidestep right to a dirty crack that takes medium cams. Above, a corner-ramp system leads to the base of the summit overhangs. Climb steep terrain to the right before cutting back left and escaping to the exit slab (5.6). If desired, belay at the corner-ramp and break the route into 2 pitches.
Location Just Right of Old #7.
Protection Aid gear to 3.5in
