The right finger crack on the start of P3 Go West Young Man.

After the small shelf in the trail, you go about 100 more feel (not 30-40) and will see this obvious cairn on the left.

Toe of the cliff and start of "Go West Young Man" and "Manifest Destiny". Manifest Destiny goes straight up the slab past several bolts (approx locations in red), Go West Young Man trends right before heading upwards in the direction shown

Start of P1 with the bolt on the slab

Near the anchor Pitch One

Mid P2 Finger Crack (Nice rest )

P2 Finger Crack Traverse (Extend ALL Alpine Draws and Bring a fair amount of TCU's , finger size nuts and tri-cams) Run P2 and 3 together with 70m Rope!

P4 (or P3 if you ran P2 and P3 together as we did)

At the end of P2, the finger crack becomes a vegetated seam and you get to run it out a bit up easy slab.

When you get to the plateau and start descending and looking out for the climber's trail, this is the shelf at the dry stream in the trail that signals you are about 100ft from the cairn that marks the start of the trail.

The pitch 2 traversing crack.

John doing the single rope rap down from the top of "Old Route" to the pine tree belay at the end of P3 of "Go West Young Man". We finished up this as p4 of Go West Young Man by accident - it was dry and fine climbing though, so I'd recommend!
