This Arete proved to be a lot easier climbing than at first glance.   Although the gear is sparse for the first pitch its really ok.  The beginning has no gear for fifty feet but is fifth class 5.1 with good holds.  go up through a tree band and move onto the arete placing a few cams for a nice mantel to the anchors.  Second pitch is money trend right around a pillar and through the overlap and up beautiful finger cracks to the summit.  The trail is right there!

Vector Sector 5.9 var.(with John Raymond)  At the second pitch move out right about 30ft on to the face and look for finger cracks and tops out
