Tenaya Peak, North Face Direct

It's mixed 4th and 5th for the first seven pitches, or so, but the eighth we thought had at least one 5.8 move.

Go to the end of the East End Beach, farthest from the road. Go up a stony gully until you reach the living rock and are straight below the summit.

We descended down the NW ridge, facing Half Dome, until we could do a reverse turn to our right onto the brushy ledge that leads back in the direction of the Meadows, until we could scramble down to the beach.

I'm almost sorry to admit it, but we climbed this in the Pitonaceous Era. I don't know modern pro very well, but I'd carry a lot of nuts. I never could afford Friends.
