Description:

A fun route located just to the right of Solar Slab Gully- it follows the obvious dihedral system about 50' right of the gully route. From the base of the gully, third class up and right about 20' to a ledge. Pitch 1: Continue up and right (mostly 4th class), until a huge dihedral comes into view. From here, head straight up into the dihedral to its left. Belay at a sloping ledge with some bushes on it. Pitch 2: Head up the dihedral and face to its left on good rock for about 50' before stepping left into an obvious crack system. Follow this to a good belay ledge far above. 5.6, 190' Pitch 3: Continue up the system for about 50' before working through a bulge and a steep crack to another ledge and belay. 5.8, 70' Pitch 4: Continue up easy terrain to the top. 5.4, 150'
