Description
This route follows the East face of the Unicorn for the first 200 feet. After this easy warm up, you will have to move South (left) and climb a very exposed ramp on the South side of the rock that parallels the East face.
The crux is found in the initial 30 feet of the ramp where it thins out and the overhang above you is pushing towards the Red Devil some 60 feet below. Negotiate this section and romp up to the summit.
Descent - downclimb from the summit block to the East, and head Northwest down a broken section of rock.
