Description

It's the edge of the pillow, duh. Start near (not on) upward protruding rock that looks very unappealing in the case of a fall. Use the arete to gain the first horizontal and place a good cam. From here you have options... and you have to find those options. Place marginal gear along the way and try not to fall. Finish in cool finger crack at the top to a pleasant mantle finish. A true sportsman wouldn't bail into the chimney of Fat Man's Misery...
