The route starts on the left side of the pillar, trends up and left across the wall, more or less following the crack system, and then traverses right to the arete at the orange band. The final pitch climbs an obvious dihedral around the corner.

Looking back down the cruiser corner on pitch 5
Moving up to the belay stance after the traverse on pitch 2. Be sure to run it up the crack a bit before placing pro to spare yourself drag and your second a serious whipper!
Starting the traverse on pitch 2.
Chris in the chimney formed by the pillar and the main wall. Pitch one was kinda intimidating looking til I got on it then it turned out to be fun and well protected. The #5 camalot was really unnecessary weight, I wouldn't bring it again.
