Originally a staunch two pitch climb, this exciting outing can be done as one monster pitch. Start up the slab as for Mischmasch, through some brittle rock and then into the lower crux to gain the crack/slab/corner feature to the right of arête.

Climb steep ground above the belay, watching the runout (a wire can be used to tone things down a bit). Carry on up the arête to the ledge and finish as for Mischmasch up the cruxy block.
