Description
Climb Warm Up for about 10 feet then cut right to the amazing arete. Subtle yet taxing moves up the arete lead to a technical crux just before the last bolt, after which it eases to the top.
This is a great climb that requires good footwork and balance; cooler temperatures help as well.
The arete can be climbed on either side but my beta was to move to the right side after the first bolt then cut back onto the left side just below the last bolt.
