Description
While just a linkup, this route climbs the best terrain on Cloak and Dagger and Mig's Arete, giving sustained fun climbing.
Climb the first four pitches of Cloak and Dagger, and belay on the right side of the large ledge at the top of the second 5.10 pitch.
Climb up and right for 70 feet or so to an obvious ledge that extends to the arete. Move right on this ledge, and belay below a thin crack through an overlap that is about 10 feet from the arete, 5.6 or so.
Fire through the overlap, and continue up the thin crack for about 30 feet until it is possible to step right into a dihedral on the arete. Loosely follow this dihedral until it ends at a slightly ledgy section. Locate some incipient seams just left of the arete, arrange some protection, and fire up them until a ledge system leads right around the arete to the base of the flare on Mig's Arete, 100 feet, 5.10+ PG-13.
Now just follow the last fantastic pitch (or two) of Mig's Arete to the top.
