Free soloing with a friend

the entire route as seen atop the black streaked slabs

View from the true summit, of the walkoff wrap-around out onto the frontside talus slope facing the lake, to connect to the ledge traverse descent option. Aug 2015.

Summit view.

We chose to just follow the ridgeline down as opposed to the ledge descent. Parties that took the ledges ended up at the bottom in about the same time as us (and we're old and slow).

I suspect many people encountered Ms. Tenaya (as we named her) or her friends on this route.

You pretty much follow a route that goes just left of the skyline in this photo.

One third up the route.

Ledge

Follow the edge up. Stay left.

The "open bouldery area" referenced in Supertopo, marked by a big cairn, to drop down and out onto the frontside talus slope facing the lake, to connect to the frontside ledge traverse descent option. This spot is about 20-30 mins below the true summit, after passing the second and bigger rock formation along the way down the ridgeline. Aug 2015.

Cruising up the fun terrain, pretending there's an earthquake or something

Looking up the route. If you choose to rope up this is about where you want to do it.

the views along the way to the summit are so very stunning... so many incredible views of the high country

the views on the descent are spectacular...

Looking down from the summit.
