Just before the first pitch, the final 5th class scramble up to the start. Iconic curved dead tree marks the spot! Scramble up to this onto a dirt ledge, or start belaying from here.
Pitch 7

The route
Pitch 7 optional crack. Starts with #3 and then gets smaller. It's the trickiest section of the entire climb.
The P5 options. Either stay in the corner from the start or follow the middle and traverse left. Don't follow the wide right crack.
Start of P5. Either stay left in the corner the whole way or start on the middle crack and then traverse left into the corner. Do NOT follow the right crack over to the edge. It leads to a sketchy traverse platform that definitely isn't the route
Pitch 3 takes you back up onto the ridge, there seem to be a lot of potential entry points
Start of pitch 1. Most official route seems to start on the left crack as drawn. It's an awkward start, but after some searching you'll find some footholds.
The beginning of Pitch 4. Just go up the easiest terrain, it's all pretty easy.
