To the (climber’s) right of Hug-a-Ginga, starts up the vague crack/slab system slanting out right. Gear generally plentiful, climbing very mellow. – Easy climbing but on sometimes broken rock (14). – From the base of the distinctive orange face with multiple vertical cracks, take the rightmost crack (or another, at probably a higher grade) then continue up balancey slabs on generally good rock to the base of the steep headwall with obvious big cracks (15/16 depending on crack taken at orange face). – Move to the climber’s right around the headwall and climb the slabs to the top of the bulge. – From here scramble to the top of the outlier peak (14). If abseiling the route, note rap points carefully on ascent as good ones are hard to find (smooth domes of doom).
