The Dog's Ear

Starting on the northwest corner of The Spire, work up the arete up and right. Pass a prominent bulge, using side pulls on the arete and feet on the overhanging face. About half way up find a terrific jug right on the edge of the arete. As the route becomes more overhanging, work up to a prominent gendarme on the arete and pull over the edge to the slabby face of the north side. Climb the last 15 feet to the anchors, shared with "Why Go Right."
