Six pitches: 17, 18, 14, 15, 16, 15. Start up a thin crack right of the central hanging corner. Move up and right through overlaps to belay on broken ledges (crux). Continue up and left into a large open corner; follow this for two pitches before stepping right onto a large ledge to belay. Move right onto the southeastern aspects for two beautiful but easy pitches to the summit. Fantastic rock on the lower wall.
