This is a great route on the West face of the Nuns.

Pitch 1- Good hands up the right side of a pillar for 20 feet leads to a steep jam/lieback corner to a two bolt belay. 5.11 - 70'

Pitch 2- Interesting and good climbing follows thin cracks to a gear belay at the notch. 5.11 - 115'

Pitch 3- Go north on a ledge to anchors and climb 5.9 crack to the summit.

Descent- 1 short rap off the top to the anchors at the beginning of pitch 3, and 1 60 meter rap to the ground from there.

Protection Suggest change

1 set TCU's, 1 set stoppers, 2- .5 camalots, 4- .75 camalots to #2 camalots, 1 #3 camalot.
