Description Suggest change

Easy runout to the base of an obvious crack. The crux is right off the slab and is protected by a bolt. The difficulties begin with a sharp off-hands crack which gives way to strenuous hands and fists to the top.
Addendum per guide book:
Skirt right of the bolt and back to the crack on p1 to make it 10a
P2: Climb a wide crack along an arch to a bolted anchors, 5.8 70 ft
P3: Pull over a 5.9 bulge and belay after 100ft
P4: scramble up easier ground and descend as for the nose

Location Suggest change

Hike in as for the Nose and head downhill and north from the the base of the Nose. Walk past a large slab and find the obvious crack.

Protection Suggest change

A single bolt at the crux. Wide range of passive gear. Multiples in the 2-3 camalot range. Rap the nose route.
