Description
Do you like solitude? Do you like moving ropeless over easy terrain? Then this is a route for you
Scramble up tedious scree from the last of the Graveyard Lakes. Aim for the left side of the skyline. The fun begins when you reach the summit crest. Follow a beautiful sidewalk in the sky for a few hundred feet of 3rd class to low 5th class scrambling on perfect golden granite. Its possible to stay on the ridge crest the entire time. If you want to reduce the difficulty or exposure, just down climb a little bit.
