Description
This is one of the better routes on the rock, and it is previously undocumented.
Approach as for the other Apostle routes, but continue South along the base past the main face. A huge, left-facing corner separates the 'sub-slab' from the main East Face. Go around this corner and uphill to this second tier of rock and settle at the base just left of the huge corner. Boot up and climb main face on good holds and clean dry stone on this face the summit.
This route finishes on the "true summit" of the rock, Southwest of the previously documented routes.
To descend to the base, walk off to the West and skirt the formation to the South, coming down between this rock and 'Damascus', a small Flatiron to the South of the Apostle.
