Description:

A difficult route with minimal protection on the upper (crux) pitch. Climb 10m along cracks the dihedral at the far right end of the ridge. Surmount a hand-jam overhang (5.10) and continue 15m up cracks to a belay/rappel station. The first pitch is well protected. The second pitch is difficult to protect and very run out. It's 30m of very smooth, exposed face and crack climbing close into the dihedral corner. Very intimidating.
