3 out of 5 stars P1 Le Gourmet, P2 Front C, P3 Old Man's Route

Go into the dihedral for 5.3 climbing. Climb the face for something a little more challenging. Use tree to belay second and rap anchors with double ropes for a single pitch rappel.

3 out of 5 stars Took out a n00b.

Basically class 4 with a few class 5 moves along the way. Easy walk to the top, and not very exposed. Great way to introduce someon new to the experience, although the Chimney and rap get incredibly busy and slow.
