Description
Honestly, we only climbed a portion of the route after getting off the Beckey route.
The pitches seem to be:
P1 - moderate approach pitch angling slightly up and left towards the slab left of large roof, 5.7?
P2 - 7
P3 - 9, bolt + gear
P4 - tricky 5.10 slab, this is the pitch we climbed
P5 - topo indicates this is the crux pitch, did not climb
P6 - ? the buttress eases back, and like the Beckey, the rating probably eases a bit
