Description 

P1: Follow the obvious weakness up to the bolts an the start of the vertical section of the ridge.

P2: From the bolts go straight up and follow the ridge to the flat area below the summit spire, where there is a bolted anchor. The crux is right off the bolts.

P3: Continue up the ridge to the summit. The best part is the step across the gap onto the summit spire!

To rappell back to the base of the route, down climb to the webbing rappell anchor on the north side of the summit spire. 60 meter double rope rappell will just barely bring you to the ground.


Location 

Start at the entrance of the chimney that is to the left of God's Own Drunk.


Protection 

P1: 1 small nut to bolted anchor
P2: Small nuts to bolted anchor
P3: 1 small nut, slung horn, to bolted anchor
