Description
This is a fun route with some great views of Rockefellow and beyond. There are numerous ways to reach the top, one involving a deep chimney passage that goes across the dome.
P1 5.8 R, 165' | Begin in same left facing corner as 'The Nose Goes' but after about 15' head right to a vertical seem with poor pro. As it opens up, the gear gets better. Continue up as through a wide section, belay where the crack joins the main corner to the left.
P2 5.10, 100' | Head up the left-facing flakes to your left towards the pro & a big chimney. Belay from dike on the right side of the chimney. Either climb chimney or runout easy face.
(Original route's P2 (5.7) headed up and right for about 40' until the steep on your left gets featured enough to climb to the summit.
Follow the passages or go up to summit
- Walk off
