Description:

Walk up ridge from summit of route on loose shale. Then traverse left and down (SE) on obvious ramp system to a group of pine trees. Traverse to end of pine trees and ramp system to some slings kind of hidden in the trees and bushes. Rap from these slings with one 60m rope to ledge about 60ft below. Then rap again from slings on pine trees (70m rope just makes it) to obvious scree slope below. Avoid the sucker rappel from slings on dead tree that you would have to scramble down to at start of ramp system. Can be done in 3 single rope rappells with 50 or 60 m rope!
