Pitch #1-- Follow right angling 60deg
offwidth crack with blocky sections to
small overhanging roof. Flaring
cracks allow you to climb left hand
side of roof (1st crux 5.9) to 1st
belay, full 60 m rope length to tree,
(8" tree growing from side of cliff).
Pitch #2-- After a few initial
5-8-5.9ish moves, the climb eases to
short 5.6 -5.7 blocky faces for
remainder of pitch (another full 60m
to belay).
Pitch #3-- Move up short 4th class
section to base of large overhanging
block (move belay to here to avoid
KILLER rope drag).
Pitch #4-- Either climb 50' chimney /
offwidth to chockstone or go over
right face through some funky granite
flutes and continue up arête until on
top of chockstone (5.8+ --Both
options were climbed and both meet
at the same place, with equal
objective hazards--about 30' run out
to begin the pitch, pick your poison!!).

Pitch #5-- Continue straight up
obvious hand/offwidth crack (5.9
continuous--LONG crux #2) for 50m to
ledges below summit.
Pitch #6-- a couple of short 5.6 faces
remain to the summit, which is about
the size of a horse saddle--only 1
person can fit at a time.
Descent: Scramble / rappel route (4-5
raps) or scramble / rappel north side of
ridge off a number of trees, blocks and
bushes until you are back to lake.
If you rappel the route, there are trees
spaced nearly perfectly 30m apart for
every rappel needed.
