East Face

This climb isn't worth leading, in my opinion; it's not particularly fun. If you really want to do it, do it on TR after leading one of the other routes. By the way, if you peel off just after pulling the roof, and just before clipping the bolt, it would be an ugly fall. Feb 16, 2008

The bolt seems to be poorly located. I agree, leading this route is bold the way it was set up. Fun TR. May 28, 2008

Do not lead this route. Do not waste time climbing it unless you want cool pictures of yourself pulling an overhang. May 15, 2009

Nonsense, this route is a fine lead. The roof protects with a small nut below the lip, if you take a fall, its 4 feet, and over hung enough that you avoid whipping the wall. IF you peel off after pulling the roof, you didn't deserve to clip the bolt anyway, the feet and hands are all bomber. Mar 16, 2012

What's all this about falling above the roof = plunge into certain death? Bah.. I'm a big chicken and fwiw I slipped off above the roof trying to traverse over to clip the oddly-placed bolt above the lip and had an all-air, very clean fall onto a #3 BD at the roof. I ended up no where near the ground. This was all a while back, we stopped in to play on the Pinnacle after a day of climbing. I thought this was the funnest way up the Pinnacle. It is a bit pumpy, particularly after a day of sport wanking, but a short/fun climb. Oct 12, 2012

You can place two small C3's after pulling the roof and before the bolt. I placed them from a funky double knee bar, which made the route for me. Lots of fun climbing for a short route! Nov 18, 2012

Definitely worth climbing on TR, mostly for the fun heel hook! I'd recommend rapping down the north face because rope drag is bad. Dec 7, 2015
