5 Pitches of varied climbing, cracks, faces, corners and mushrooms, finishing up the black groove.

  1. 3+: From a small canyon on the east side of the mountain, start up the crack and move left to a 2nd higher crack.

  2. 4+: Gain the ledge, then climb through 2 mushrooms, then walk left to belay from large threads.

  3. 4+: Easy walk left then back up right, climb up the slab.

  4. 3+: Climb up the corner crack in the black groove. (~40m)

  5. 3+: Continue up the corner crack heading right onto the face then left at the end.

Decent: Head north over the back to find your way down. Perhaps a small down climb to reach the ground. (30 mins)
