Description:
Start 200' right of Jubilant Song, at a crack system that is continuous for 2/3 of the face and consists of left-facing corners. Pitch 1: Climb the crack in the moderate black face to a rocky ledge. Pitch 2: Ascend the chimney. Above this, climb the overhang of face and go left on easier climbing. Pitch 3: Ascend the left-facing corner to a black face. Pitch 4: Ascent the easy black face to a broad ledge. Pitch 5: Go up a corner to a point 30 feet below an overhang with a water trough. Step right, by way of a small overhang, around the corner onto the face. (5.7 crux) Pitch 6: Go up, past a pine tree and belay at the oak tree mentioned in Jubilant Song. Pitch 7: Step right into the waterstreak and continue up it until you come to a large ledge on your left. Pitch 8: Step left and ascend the left facing book to the summit. (5.5) Variation: From the last belay, you can step right and ascend the waterstreak to the summit. (5.7+) Descent: Same as Jubilant Song.

Ascent Note
Nice climb, mostly face climbing along cracks and corners. One cool but short chimney section. A small amount of bad (white) rock.
