Big moves on positive face holds lead to a steep, clean dihedral. Technical and powerful climbing leads to jugs. Above, there are several options, the FA took the cleanest line up and right. follow the wide stembox up 10ft until you can step out right onto the arete. Follow the arete to the top, placing small gear and climbing awesome slopy features.
