Description
This climb provides excellent crack climbing to gain the SE Ridge, avoiding the typical bowling alley choss chute that is the normal way to gain the ridge.
p1. 40 m, multiple variations including splitter .75 cracks, wide laybacks to squeeze chimney, .3s in a corner to perfect hands pulling a lip to a lower angle scree slope. Awesome!
p2. 5th class scrambling past multiple ledges and slabs angling toward a large tower, going left around it or tunneling through from the right.
p3. 15 m, Belay on a perfect ledge at the base of a left facing corner. Climb the steep varied cracks that form between protruding fins of rock. Once you mantle, 4th class climbing will get you to the SE Ridge.
Rappel the route.
