Description
This route is near the center of the face. First move is a high step lieback and mantle to a bolt. A bit unnerving for those not used to the old school Josh routes. Continue up past 3 bolts to a false summit slab. (The route actually climbs to the right and more directly than what the Vogel guide shows). From the false summit slab, clip an ancient 1/4" bolt and boulder to the summit.
