Description:

6 pitches, though 3&4 are easy to string together. 6th pitch (last) goes wandering off line to left at 5.7 or go straight up through 5.9 roof crux with loose top out (fun! really!). Top out for walk off is a sketchy traverse across choss to trees so make sure your last anchor is bomb proof - the guidebook warns you about it and this would be a good time to listen. (There's beta on the last station in the "climbed by" description.)

4 out of 5 stars Bonanza

Fun climb but the first pitch (OW) sucks despite some new bolts. Some route finding after that, but relatively straightforward. We topped out to find a foot of snow with a hard sun crust we broke through on the walkoff.. ouch.
