Description:
Start from the square pedestal at the base of a left facing corner. Pitch 1 - Work up a slight slab past a piton to a large ledge, move left along a flake through an OW slot (this area does not take good pro) until you can rig a belay. Pitch 2: Short - go straight up through a notch to the summit. (ropeburn)

Nice belay ledge. The offwidth at the beginnign of the second pitch is a little dicey.

Swung lead, did the second pitch. Fun warmup climb. Good overhanging section just above the belay station.

Good climb... Start of second pitch is a little interesting (overhung foot wide crack with no pro--not too hard though)...this is a route worth doing!
