Description:

This is a great route for a 5.7 or 5.8 climbing party in search of some adventure. Bring double ropes to rap or rap diagonemesis down the back side. Hard to find the start of this one. Hike up past the dome and do the easy corner up the back side, then bust up the prow for several pitches with totally arbitrary belays to the summit. Fun. A bit loose in places.

Fun route, we did it in 9 pitches very quickly. Liked the "stemming over the void" on the 2nd pitch.
