Bushwack Beta - Leave trail around 4450' in elevation and aim for the boulder fields. My bushwhack was no more then 15 minutes, rock was easy going. This will also minimize impact on the vegetation. Watch out for holes!

Looking up at the last short section of technical climbing from the diving board. I suggest finishing up the red corner which is a bit more technical. Once you pull onto the slab this is the start of the 4th class top-out.

Awesome view of the prominent Henderson Ridge as we made our way down the headwall of Huntington Ravine.

Porter on the Diving Board. Coolest 5.3 in NH?

View after the first pitch. We had about 50 m of rope out at that point.

The top out is vegetated with 3rd class scrambling intermixed.

Lovey Diving Board

Julian on the "diving board". Do use alpine draws as the route wanders a bit.

couldn't find 2 piton anchors that supposedly exist (my 2nd found 1 below diving board), but ample opportunities for gear anchors the whole way. 1 tri-cam stuck on P1 and 1 offset stuck right at the crux section above diving board

Aaron on the Diving Board, which sticks out into the void above North Gully. Awesome position.
