Description
Description of the FA, from which the following is paraphrased
Sustained, difficult alpine route put up by Max Hasson and Jens Holsten. Some pitch details:
P1 - (5.10) - Start as for west face. Climb up blocky ledges, then up a splitter on your left.
P2 (5.12a) - Wild and pumpy movement leads to 2 bolts leftward. Execute challenging movements to a splitter finish, 2 bolt belay.
P3 - (5.11a) - Continue up the crack.
P4 (5.11c) - Steep, strenuous moves up the obvious dihedral.
P5 (5.11c) - Grasp the pancake thin jug flake and move left to a crack. This will lead to a pleasant bouldery conclusion.
P6 (5.10a) - Wandering traverse out right leads up followed by a slab traverse back left.
Descent: There's a slung mushroom shaped chicken head on the south/southwest face. Optional rap 30 meters, then head over the rock outcropping to the south. Easy walk off from there back to the base
