Rip Van Winkle takes the prominent right-angling crack.
A route overlay of Rip Van Winkle.
Midway up the splitter.
A good view of the climb.
The fun part.
This photo was taken from the ledge at the top of Rip Van Winkle. To get to the top of the tower, climb the diagonal splitter, which felt about 5.8. There was no rap anchor on top, so we downclimbed on gear.

Just past the crux roof move.
The route with a climber just below and to the left of the crux roof moves.
Just below the crux. Footholds on the face make the setup for the pull over the roof a little easier.
A look back while hiking to Cynnical Pinnacle, Rip Van Winkle is in the middle.
