Rip Van Winkle 

We took an alternative variation to the top.
From the top of the P3 chimney/corner, go over the bulge and then left and belay at the base of a damp 3rd class gully.
Climb the gully and fire for the summit through some delicious 5 star bushwhacking. (5.tree+ 160ft) For extra glory and effect on the tourists wear shorts and a t-shirt ;)

Did just the first pitch 10/24/10. We found a bolted anchor with newish bolts - this serves as the anchor for "A Tall Climb to Be Good On" too. Single rope EASILY gets you down from the first pitch. The bolt midway is shiny + stamped: "2006"

Climbed 5/1/2011, super fun. Linked #1&2 and #3&4 with a single 70m rope. No significant drag, though we did move the belay from the top of two to the bottom of three by scrambling (walking) across the ledge to the base of the 3rd pitch corner. Found shiny new belay bolt and rap rings at the top of P4 near the Lightning ledge scramble and belayed off those. Probably woudln't have reached with a 60 on either linked set.

We tried to do just the first pitch this weekend oct/09/11 which turned out to be a nightmare. once the first pitch was completed the rope drag was pretty bad, and there were no rap anchors to be found had to link P1&2 got to the top of P2 still no rap anchors. Rappelled off of a pine tree with sketchy slings (I left a new sling and biner) used a doubled 60, and 70m rope the 60m barely made it

Did this 10/20/11 the day after a rain storm and it did not dry well unlike most everything else we did on the east face. The P1 anchors weren't easily seen from the route, but they're there 20 ft up and right from the bolt. If you've hit the tat nest in a bush you've gone to far. From there, we ran almost a full 60M rope to the top of what we thought was pitch 2 which had an anchor on a cluster of pines. After that we did some lichen covered 5th class/bushwacking up to a ledge with a clear trail back to the base. Never did find any more bolted belay stations or clean rock to indicate the start of the 3rd or 4th pitches.

FUn route with some potential for exciting variations! Another great full length route to the top! Can be a little bushy, but it just adds to the adventure!

Once at the bolt, cut right. Don't follow the natural line straight up. I had to bail and leave a tricam in a sea of lichen. The topo in the book is very misleading.
