Description:

While doing the Mummy there is an alternate for P3 that is fun and challenging. From the huge ledge instead of climbing the traditional P3 (which goes to the right staying on the arete) climb cracks and work left to a roof/dihedral. You can climb up the dihedral and over the roof. You then have to move right to make it to the belay tree at the top of the climb. Watch for rope drag doing this variation.
