Staircase

"A popular route, but not well protected in places. The scene of many serious accidents over the years."

-- from the Thomas Kelley guide (ed.2)

P1: climb a shallow groove to a face, continue up the face to a ledge.

P2: climb the face to a ledge at the base of the obvious crack.

P3: up the groove to the top.

This route starts on the mini-buttress to the right of the Fire Wall, and heads for the high tree filled ledge (top of P2).

Standard rack.
