Description
Pitch 1: Climb a short, left facing corner (5.6). The start of this climb requires a little route finding skills. Pitch 2: Move up left in a ramp and trough system to a skyline notch with a bolt belay. Pitch3: The pinnacle looms to the northeast above the notch. Traverse left in a ramp and trough system to a skyline notch with a bolt belay. Pitch4: Move left from the belay ledge and climb a short crack to a good stance with a funky bolt. From here the pitch wonders a little but route findings is easy.
Location
Scramble up to the top of the gully and start below the right trough/gully system on the south side of the tallest pinnacle. Descent: 3 rappels. For rap 1, do a 2-rope rappel past pitch 4's belay (20' below) to anchors in an east facing gully/ramp. For rap 2, do a 2-rope rappel to a bolt anchor atop pitch 1. For rap 3, rappel to the base.
