Description 

This route is only recommended as a downclimb of the Front Porch. It is convenient in case you are soloing up one of the other routes....

From the base of the Front Porch, walk right and up (north) until you find a gully climbing North on the East Face. Follow the gully up for some 100 dirty and pine needle-y feet until you reach the Northeast ridge of the Front Porch.

From here, climb the ridge towards the top (left) in a series of broken steps. It is about 200+ feet of ridge until you reach the summit.
