Thanks, guys.

So for clarity, the way around from Lower Broadway to Luncheon Ledge will be made obvious to all seekers -- as in, no fancy directions necessary?

Re: the "summit" rap station, maybe it's the same one as the "top of Gunsight". I think it's from a rock horn some yards north of the summit proper, but clearly on the summit ridge. I think you can see some blue slings around a rock horn if you click on this photo a few times to enlarge to max.

It sounds like it's as legit as any other, if it's the one you're talking about.

Thanks again,

James

There are 2 rap stations at the summit: at the top of Alcoa Present and Orange Aid. The one with the sling in the pic looks like Alcoa Present's. Orange Aid is about 10 ft south of Alcoa and much easier to get to. There are a set of 2 coldshuts and 1 old bolt. So from the summit, just walk north about 15 ft and look down to your right you should see the anchor. 2 raps should get you down to Upper Broadway.

Also, both stations are for rapping down the East Face only, if that's not already obvious.
