Description
Climb up the small crack that leads to a ledge system, and place protection in the horizontal crack above the ledge. The crack widens as you continue up. You will have to run out the last 10' up to the knob. At the knob, you can continue up the face or go back down. No beta is available past the knob. This is a good first lead, though there is a runout. This route is very tedious in the snow.
There is the possibility for a longer route!
Location
Locate a faint trail to the left directly after you pass the gate. You will reach a boulder, then turn right. At the top of the boulder, turn left, and continue on the trail until you reach a fork. At the fork, turn right, and head up to a small crack and a flake. This is the start of the climb.
Protection
Protection: #1, 0.75 cams, #1-8 size nuts, quickdraws, and slings.
