A quality line starting just right of Direttissima offering mostly bolt protected climbing for the first 5 pitches then 4 pitches with a more traditional flare, topping out on the summit block. Techy slab cruxes down low and typical steep blocky climbing up top. A single rack from micro's to #4 is useful.

Shares the first pitch with High Voltage. Mostly bolted protection however a single rack from micro cams to #3 is required and a #4 BD is useful in a few places. Fairly straight line however double ropes are required if you wish to rap off or need to bail.

very fun crack roof and corner, a must do for a climb of Bottleneck

very fun route, climbs one of the striking corners on the lower half of the face and good route finding, traversing and runouts make this one of the best routes around.
