Description Suggest change

The best 5.8 in the cirque, on the left side of the wall. Start in a sweet handcrack in a dihedral and belay on a ledge with two old pitons at your feet. The next pitch is a wandering 5.7, and can be replaced with The Answer for a harder variation. The last, amazing pitch on the headwall which follows a crack with ample face jugs is also 5.7.  Each pitch is ~100-120’ long. 

Protection Suggest change

Light alpine rack. A 60m rope is long enough to make the descent raps.
