I'm at the first belay described in Scott's description. Notice that above me the crack system splits in two, the right branch shoots up and to the right. From below it looks like this is the way you want to go since the left branch looks like it peters out in blank face. But as you get higher it becomes apparent that the crack continues. This is the way we went and it was great -- steep, interesting and well protected.
