Description Suggest change

"The Big Nasty" 

Go get yourself a second ascent. 

As you climb to the right of the Oka-Bates route, the rock cleans up as it sees more sunlight. The Shields-Lunceford route boasts the least mungey of the four North face routes and is actually quite good. It has yet to see a second ascent as of 2026

Getting There Suggest change

Drive to the Priest Lake side, and take the Chimney trail into Roothaan and follow the ridge down to Gunsight.
