Description:

A beautiful line up the Whale. A little bit of face climbing leads you into a gorgeous finger crack which continues all the way to the top. Can be done in two pitches with a 60M rope if you take the first pitch to a stance at the arete.

Descent Options:

Bolted anchors at the top allow you to rappel off the left side of the Whale with two ropes.

4 out of 5 stars amazing route.

Did this route in 3 pitches with nate before getting on mithral dihedral the next day. Fantastic line with an amazing crack the whole way up.
Swapped leads where I led the middle pitch, and definitely want to go back to lead the other pitches.
