The first pitch of East Side. Start up a right-facing corner with a hand crack. Where the route changes direction, climb a 20'-long wide crack, and continue up the corner to a big ledge.

One rope rap to the walk off. (we had a 70) or 3 shorter raps back to the base.
Mike Borkowski nearing the top of the airy summit fin.
The 1st rappel lands you at nice stance in a gully at the end of your rope (60m). From here, traverse across the slab (yellow) and then hike down the gully (pink) to return to your packs. This avoids a 2nd rappel from the tree with tat lower in the gully.
A nice rap anchor on the spire summit, made out of indestructible aircraft cable.
Nate A. leading the last pitch. Awesome exposure.
The fun first pitch crack before it heads left.
Crux of 2nd pitch.
