Description:
6 pitches.If done totally free, this goes at 5.12. Certain sections can be aided, turning it into a 5.7 A2. Dont approach from the south end of the cliffs,rather hike past summit rock and do a short bushwhack directly to the buttress.The 5.7x part is a slab climbing that is 1 or 2 moves a long way out from gear. The aid is really straight forward and takes small nuts just after the roof. There are some really great positions on this route(pitch 5)

Ridiculously fun day on this route, we were the only party on the wall that day (to our knowledge). My first aid leads (3 pitches up and 5 miles in - what better time/place?!?!), on excellent rock and a magnificent place to be.

Finally got back up there to give this thing another go...turned out to be quite the adventure. excellent route, some superb climbing. And btw, the 5.7x pitch more more like 5.7- PG/R with lots of small cams. G if you've got a skyhook ;).
