Description
The beginning of this route really needs a bolt. Originally, Dylan though this would be a roof crack, but the start pushes you out onto the face. With a bolt and some more cleaning on the upper crack, this would get another star.
Scramble up to a large ledge, get gear in the crack, and follow better holds on the face up to a cruxy lip encounter. Pull around onto the face, much more easily and with fantastic views up the wide crack.
Bolted rappel anchor on the next prominent buttress climber's left brings you back to your packs.
