Description:
Take the South Face Approach and the follow the Ramp to the East Ledges. One crack right of TAD. Pitch 1 (100ft, 5.7) wide crack to bolt belay. Pitch 2 (160 ft., 5.8) simply the finest hand and fist crack around. 5 stars on a 3 star scale. Classic!! Long pitch, take alot of gear, the crux is at a bulge. Summit via the Meadows or take the El Cracko rappels. The rap is one crack right of El Cracko. This is one of the few raps that is possible with a single 60 (chains all the way down). With double ropes this can be done in two raps, and be sure to watch the ends of your ropes!

First Multi-Pitch Anything
Led the first, followed the second. Definitely not the most graceful ascent in DT history, but I made it up!
