Description:
The classic east buttress. The Harding variation is NOT recommended. Very Dirty. The 10c bolt ladder can be aided if U hafta. This makes the route 5.9 A0. Some loose stuf, mostly up high.

Ascent Note
The date maybe a little off, but it was in May!
We had to pass a party after the second pitch and messed around doing the descent, and still made it back to the packs in like 4hrs? That's being generous it may have been less...We took the right hand variation and belayed when the 60M rope ran out. We did do some simul climbing- but only a little. This route is very good and the climbing and gear is very solid. We did the descent after the big rock fall- it is NBD but I'm glad I wasn't around when that thing cut loose!
