Description
Locate the broken NW face from the top of the gulley on the west side of the face. Multiple options climb generally up then out right avoiding a prow-like steep roof section. The second pitch climbs a lower angle slab with spaced out pro. This gains a flat shoulder; move the belay to near a notch, then climb one pitch to the summit area. Class 2 on rubble gains the summit. One rappel and downclimbing gains the shoulder; walk back towards the start of the ridge to locate a small tree with rappel slings; one more rappel from a large block gets you to the ground.
