● Original Route
Apr 13, 2022 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Stellar Climb with Nathan. Led him up it to get my climbing head back in check. Fourth Pitch has amazing stemming between three pillars of beautiful sandstone that vortex you up to the summit. The fall across to the true summit was as good as climbing gets. Hung on the crux bolt and fell two pieces up on pitch two.
