The top 2/3 of Incredible Hulk, as seen near the end of the approach.

Not a picture of the Incredible Hulk, but a crazy, large plank of rock wedged in a crack on the ridge above Incredible Hulk.

Stoking on the approach!

This is a bit of a work in progress. I'd love to get more routes up there.

All the protein you need. Just bring carbs and a water filter.

Rappel bolts/tat as of Oct 19 for the single rap into SE descent gully.

The Incredible Hulk on the approach.

After the single rap from the Red Dihedral final pitches, scramble down the left gully to avoid getting cliffed-out.

If you go too far - gaining the trail is difficult

What a beauty!

The Hulk

as of 7/2019, there is no turn off sign to diverge towards Little Slide Canyon. however, the path diverges in between these two larger rocks, with this pine as a decent land marker if you're having trouble. Robinson Creek is easily crossed via felled tree

Rappel Anchor

If you can see the suspended plank, you are at or near the rap station after finishing the last pitches of the Red Dihedral.

Short walk along ridge then down left to rapper anchor, after the steepest part of the descent from the summit.

Often the crux of the approach!

Just to clarify: Trail cut-off for the Incredible Hulk.

Cairn marking the rap after finishing the last pitches of the Red Dihedral. The rap is to the skier's left, roughly on the south face of the formation.
