Description 

Nearly as classic and bold as its brother in Yosemite, The Nose is one of the most singularly inspiring, aesthetic, and challenging 5.9 toprope routes in the Pinkham Notch area. Climbs into a corner to the left of The Brain, then continues up the overhang on jugs and sharp underclings. Pumpy for the grade. Lynn Hill has never freed this!!!
