Description

This is a massive tower with many crack systems, but only 1 or 2 actually go bottom to top. It is probably over 400' tall on its south face. Start near notch between tower and rim on the shady north face.

P1. Climb thin corner past a few bushes to ledge inside massive cave/chimney system.

P2. Start on far right side of ledge. Go up through pod into a nice crack. After 50' or so, switch cracks and head up right. Toward the top of the pitch, the crack deteriorates.

P3. Aid up through loose blocks and a large roof. Keep working up, and go right at second large roof to the summit. P3 is a little wild. The summit is spectacular!

Descend via slung boulders.
