Description

This wall on the east end of French Gulch Buttress requires a different approach than the North or South faces. The climbs actually face to the north-northeast, so are shady much of the time. There are two routes of unknown grade and quality, both equipped with homemade hangers. Please update this info if you have knowledge of these routes.

Getting There

Start as for the South Face by making the hard left after crossing creek. But then make your way directly uphill in the broad gully on the easiest line you can find through the scree and rocks. Toward the top, traverse right (north) around a ridge to gain a narrower gully. The climbs are at the top of this gully.
