Description 

This route climbs the incredible north face of Lady Mountain. Start in a chimney just left of a major right facing corner. Above the chimney, climb clean face cracks on aid. Higher, some free sections lead to a big midway ledge...great bivy.

A blank area above leads to the beautiful upper corners. Exit an arch and climb one more blank area (bolts & hooks) to a sickle-like corner. At the top of this, the first ascent party ended the route as the wall slabbed out. Rap the route.
