Description 

Climb up the middle of the North Face via obvious right facing corners and flake systems to the bowl.

Start under an arch near the bottom of the face a trend up and left heading for the corners above. Climb the corners for 3 or 4 pitches (some large gear is nice).

From the bowl good route finding will allow you to reach the summit with few difficulties.

Walk off to the Southwest.

A fun route and not sustained at 5.9.

FA: Dick Dorworth and Sibylle Hechtel, 1972

The corner discribed above is more of a giant flake. I felt that getting to this flake was the crux of the climb. Once in it you are led straight up to the bowl. I didin't feel that any pitch was harder than any other once you are climbing the main feature.
