3 Finger Jack

view from "catwalk" leading to 1st pitch. Light green is "the crawl" with ticks approximately at pitons. The green route continues up the ridge and to the base of the 2nd pitch chimney (in yellow, around back). DO NOT follow red around to buttress.

The Chimney Pitch- easy to solo up, nice to rap down

Do not ascend the scree field! It is NOT the climbers route. The climbers route winds through the trees to the right in this photo (to the south east).
