w/ Dennis
Only carried a single rack up the mountain, so I ended up lowering & cleaning a couple pieces before continuing. Stepped right on the ledge beneath the overhang, around the arete & up the corner to finish through a chimney.

I started leading this route but backed off at the crux. Great on TR.
