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

Climbs easier than it looks for sure. The crux for me was getting to the pins just before the mantle. Mostly mental for the leader (good job Jon Hanlon). BEWARE the crack to the left of the true horn... don't get your rope in there or your second is screwed.
