Description:

Guide says 5.10c/d. I gave it the "d" mostly for the uniqueness of the climb and the brassiness of moving off the stem and onto the arete. Tuck up under the roof via small pockets and a long stem, reach around right at the lip for the bolt, clip, untangle from the rope behind you now, and step out on a smear-ish foothold and reach for the holds out on the arete-splitting crack and up to the top on sharp rock.

a most memorable climb. pockets, stems, ass-stretching, heady and a split-seemed arete.
