Description 

Pitch 1 - Begin in a crack in the black rock. Climb this for one long or two short pitches up to a good ledge beneath a white slab.

pitch 2 - Climb the face to a belay on the left.

Pitch 3-5. Mostly 4th class to the summit. Walk right to a dead pine tree.


Location 

This route is located on the left side of the Buttress. Look for varnish with two hand cracks. Make a series of rappels to the right of the route off a dead pine tree with two ropes down "Under Raps".


Protection 

Gear to 3" and two ropes for rappel.
