Description
If it weren't for the run out start over less than sheer terrain this would be a four star line. Begin as the latter describes on solid but less than appealing face climbing to reach bomber hand sized gear placements. A large ledge resides below the mandatory crux: usage of a downward angling in-cut crimp, protected by tiny gear; A scary move left to the arete proves mentally 'dodgy' when you consider a fall from this point, with the ledge almost ten feet below. Continue placing small gear along a long puzzle piece in the center of the face to reach horizontal jugs below a 5.10+ well protected crack climb to the summit.
