Description:

has a hard move off the ground, then climbs a tenuous 5.11a slab past many, many bolts to a belay. The second pitch is also hard, the third and fourth super 5.9 and runout 5.6. Once you hit the ledge after the fifth, walk 150 feet or so left to a bolt station. Climb steep rock off the ledge to a hard move on the face. Careful of the last pitch. It's a solid 5.10 3 bolt section that has sent more than one person onto the ledge below with an inattentive belayer. A superb route.

5 out of 5 stars brrrrr...yippee anyways

The third pitch also has some tenuous moves...oh wait that is only if it is 45 degrees and 25 mph winds in December and your fingers are numb!!!
The last pitch has a of number of bolts lines sprawled out above the anchors...Chose wisely...I recommend the center line, slick face up over the knob...climb into the gully and stay left through some sparsly bolted and not protectable seams to an anchor in a dish. Unrope and scramble the last 100 feet (passing the anchor station to your left)
