The North Face of Haystack Peak. The route follows broken shadow through any number of corners and weaknesses. We descended by the gully that is visible, splitting the shadow, with one short rap at the bottom.
Ryan Nicholson and Lee Timmons at the top of Haystack Peak's North Face. Big Sandy and Clear lakes are behind and the Cirque of the Towers is obvious in the right corner. Wolf's Head is lit up bright white with Pingora in front.

Climbing the North ridge route of Haystack
Approximate route: climb up a bit on the left leaning crack for the first belay in a scoop. The second belay is a small ledge about 30 feet down from the 4 foot roof. The third belay is a small ledge to the left of a pile of loose rocks.
View down-ridge.
Topping out on the haystack!
