View from the hiking trail.
A 3-pitch route goes up the middle of the face. A piton-protected 10+ pitch, with technical stemming and seam-climbing, leads to a 20' splitter hand crack. Follow this crack through some chossy rock (and a tree) up to a large ledge. Traverse right on the ledge, belay from a piton and climb a left-facing corner to the summit!

I didn't take coordinates, but this is my take on it location. Note that the summit is above 11,200 & the climb is at least 400ft according to contour lines.
