“The Second Elephant Buttress.
The easiest approach to Tough Situation and Classic Finger Crack is by scrambling down from the gap between the First and Second Buttresses, and scrambling right (4th class) to a good ledge at the base of the routes.
It's also possible to approach these routes via a 4th-class climb from the water pipe.
Descend by rappelling 90' from the top of Pine Tree Route, or by descending a trail just left of the First Buttress.”
