Don't climb this! The crack that appears to provide a logical fifth pitch is loose, miserable, and thoroughly unenjoyable.

The route from the ground. The sweeping roof on the last pitch can be seen in corner.

Inspired climbing!
Mystery bolt: at the top of the third pitch, we found bail slings on this nicely placed old bolt.

The route from the ground. The sweeping roof on the last pitch can be seen in corner.
Even following did not feel overly secure, with the huge undercut corner dropping away below.
The line is fairly obvious and has a one bolt anchor off to the left at the top of the third pitch. <br> <br> An unadvised optional last pitch goes up a crack on the ridge above in yellow.
The indicated tree might be the one from which we rappelled.
DeAngelo exploring the big corner on the last pitch.
Climbers deficient in vision and boldness can struggle up the smooth, flared slot. Undeterred by the exposure, Karsten stems with his customary elegance.
The flared corner offers an occasional rest spot.
Cranking into the corner.
