Steep Is Flat, with approach marked by the dashes (mostly hidden) and route marked by the solid line.
Pretty awesome couloir climbing on the approach.

Our first pitch immediately left of the soloable chockstone in the couloir. We tried to look higher up before venturing into a pitch we were unsure was on route. We couldn't find anything that looked close to the beta shots but couldn't find anything.
Pitch 3. Looking up the corner system at JD tackling the crux roof.

Here is our line in purple. A direct-start variation could exist to the left of our first pitch. It would be difficult and would likely require a different approach.<br> <br> I've borrowed and edited Eli Helmuth's photo.
