Zig Arete

This route is on the Northeast corner of the Thumb. Approach via the standard trail, then go right down into a low spot and back up onto a huge shelf below a light-colored North-facing wall. The Zig Arete climbs up and left to the left hand arete and up to a 2-bolt rap anchor. The climbing is quite good, with large moves between big, positive holds, and quite easy at the given grade of 5.10c. Great pitch though!

Six draws and some slings for the anchor up top- 2 Metolius rap-hangers.
