Description
This route ascends the very slightly featured face and arete just to the left of Unconquerable. Climb up the face or arete using one of many approaches to an interesting traverse or direct move that's going to be dynamic unless you're really in tune with your balance. Most of the route is less than vertical, though the tougher beginning section both vertical, and void of good foot placements.
This route is tough for about 8 feet, from about 4 feet off the ground until about 12 feet, and then a considerably simpler, yet enjoyable trek for the rest of the route.
An easier variation is possible by starting on Unconquerable, then traversing left halfway through to a "jug" on the arete as shown in the topo. Finish on the face with left and scooting up the arete. Goes at about 5.11.
