Description:
A fun upper pitch just to the left of Open Book. Get up to the big ramp left of "Traitor Horn" via Coffin Nail or first two pitches of Jensen's Jaunt. Belay left of the "Traitor Horn" to experience the thin ledge traverse, or right of the "Traitor Horn" (with a little 5.8 move) so belayer can maintain eye contact with the leader going up the dihedral crack to pull the roof and over onto the real horn. Rejoins last pitch of Jensen's Jaunt to the topDescent Options:
walkoff via friction descent

A stellar route and wonderful introduction to Taquitz. I had fun knowing Paul was leading the the crux pitch. :) No falls, which is always good but we got held up by the slowest team on the planet who was climbing up Jensen's jaunt which shares the line for a while. I highly recommend this climb, great exposure on the mantle of the horn.
