Description:
Doable in 1 pitch from the Ledge at the base of Upper Right Ski Track. Follow the obvious flake to easier climbing to the roof. Clip two bolts (with runners to avoid rope drag) then pull left and jam to the top. Stellar.

North Overhang
Our guidebook didn't tell us to sling the two bolts at the roof crux so we got our rope stuck in the crack above. Luckily, a local guide was leading a party behind us and got us unstuck and on our way. Making that move around the corner with no feet but great hand jams was just awesome!

Fun route. Just jam and move out left on the second pitch. Good stuff. With Joe K.
