Description Suggest change

Moonwalker climbs the crack system to the large shelf then up the face to the left hand ridge to the summit.

Pitch 1- climb the flaring crack 40 feet to the shelf. Belay on natural gear. 5.9

Pitch 2- climb around 6 1/4 studs to a 3/8 bolt with hanger. Two more pins lead to more studs and free climbing moves onto the ridge. Free climbing is protected by 1 bolts and about 5 more studs. Then traverse around the right of the summit block and mantle to the top. Most studs had washers and machine nuts on them.

Descent- rap the north face with 2 60 meter ropes. 1 70 meter rope will get you down. 1 60 meter rope will get you very close, you may need to downclimb a couple of easy moves.

Protection Suggest change

Bring a single set of cams for pitch 1. All you need for pitch 2 in many medium wires for protection over the studs and washers and nuts. Quickdraws (x5) free biners (x10).
