Refer to Rock Climbing Western Oregon, volume 2: Umpqua, Orton (ed) 2007. Topo C page 224.
P1: climbs onto face uphill and left of the crack (Deviant Deviations 5.8). Follow bolt line up (5.7) and under overhanging rock (5.8) until it ties into the fore-mentioned crack to the right. From this crack follow bolt line back left across the slab under a pronounced overhang (5.8)  to the belay ledge and tree at the center of the pinnacle (belay bolts, no chains).
P2: Walk the ledge left to to a large off-width chimney crack that splits the pinnacle to its summit. Follow bolts (5.9) up into the crack. Scramble the bottom off-with (5.5, one bolt) to the narrow portion of the chimney, then make a fun chimney climb to the summit (5.8, one bolt).
Rappel ~95 feet off two top anchors (no chains) to the ground.
