Description:
Start at the obvious huge arete on the East end of the wall. Pitch 1 is a rope stretcher. Follow discontinuous cracks to a huge ledge to belay from slings on a large boulder. Pitch 2 goes up from the right of the belay, following a prominent crack and broken ledges. Belay from slings at the "cave." Pitch 3 is where the exposure gets really good. Leave the cave to the right, and climb another crack system the peters out, then follow double cracks to top.Descent Options:
Walk off on obvious trail to the west. Downclimb broken rock back to car.

Rope solo
Exposed variation rocks. Had a lot of fun, but also a bit of an epic -- was off route and therefore runout when the free end of my rope got stuck, had to rap on a so-so anchor, ended up with two stuck pieces of gear, descended in the dark, couldn't find the trail for a while, etc. Got down around 10 pm. Yeehaw! Welcome back to BCC.

Get out on that corner
Fun climb on typical broken and ledgy BCC quartzite. Exposure on the awesome third pitch was incredible.
