Description Suggest change

Don't really know the length. I did it 43 years ago as 5 pitches plus wandering to the top. It's a pretty dim memory.

Steiger lifted his guidebook description almost word for word from the old Summit Hut notes. My Hut notes are hard to read, sooo... from Steiger:

"Most girdle traverses on a chunk of rock this size would be considerably more difficult. The Wrap is a great opportunity to get horizontal for moderate leaders. Climb The Corner and traverse left under the large overhang to a semi-hanging belay. 2) Work down and left to Pine Tree Ledge. Walk around the corner to a stance in the Black Quacker dihedral. The next three pitches follow a continuous quartz vein to a small pine tree on Disappointment Corner. 6) Continue up, turning a small overhang on the right, to easy scrambling."

MY notes from the day:

1) up through Corner and left (5.8)

2) around to Quacker (easy 4th or 5th)

3) and 4) 5.6 - 5.7

5) up right of roof. Bad pro 5.7

Don't know what I meant by "bad pro'". I doubt it was really bad. I also noted: "somewhat monotonous similar face-climbing on 3-4-5". Haha - harsh.
