Second ascent by: buffamazon on 2009-05-25 (View Climbing Log)

AWESOME multi-pitch

Classic Little Cottonwood granite! Starts with a nice first pitch, straight forward with a nice traverse. Next section is wide open with some cracks and nice chicken heads, leading to a nice crack section. All VERY different from the last. Then you get a nice chimney and a wide friction traverse, all with good gear placement. The final pitch is more cracks, with the belay hanging from a tree with some limited visibility. When you rap down, you're east of the start point. This approach is all over big granite rocks and is a workout, so don't bother doing it in Chacos. Ouch.
