Start at a left-facing corner to the right of Glypnod. Climb this and move up into a right-facing corner capped with a triangular roof. Pull around the roof on the left (hard 5.7) and continue to a belay (80 feet). Diagonal right (mellow but runout) to the GT ledge almost to where the ledge turns another corner towards 3 pines. Climb up left into a right facing corner and pull the roof at the corner. (5.8)

4 out of 5 stars Ugh

First climb of 2011 after no climbing this winter equals falling on the roof. Got it on the second try.

3 out of 5 stars OK route, a little dirty.

Climbed with Jenny P. - OK route, thin and fun moves on the first Pitch.

Second Second ascent by: juliacoreyburns on 2009-11-04 (View Climbing Log)

3 out of 5 stars for me it was anguish.

climbed with Seth. i attempted to lead P1 as my first 5.7 lead. poor choice on my part. unfortunately took my first and only leader fall - rather messy fall. then seth led P1 and i followed, getting the moves clean. i presume that it is not particularly difficult for the grade, but was just not a good choice for my first 5.7 given my skill level at the time. but i will be interested to revisit it next season.
