Description
Pitch 1:
Climb the wide crack past two drilled pins to a big ledge and a bolted belay. 5.10+, 140'
Pitch 2:
A drilled pin gets you to the thin nailing crack which leads to a bolt ladder. Falling on the thin nailing would be a very bad ledge fall a long ways from help. (We opted to cheat and stick clip past some of the nailing, the first bolt has a hanger on it.) At the top of the bolt ladder mantel on to a ledge just below the summit and then mantel once more onto the actual summit. 5.7, A3+, 60'
Descent:
Rappel to the ledge and then to the ground.
Location
The Original Route starts on the uphill side of the tower and climbs the obvious giant flared chimney/OW crack.
