P1 5.9+ 80' 10 bolts

There is a 2 bolt belay to provide security and to allow rappelling to the ground. Start just left, then trend right and up to base of shallow right facing corner.

Belay at 2 bolt anchor.

P2 5.10c 90' 12 bolts

Follow bolts up corner and then onto upper face and 2 bolt belay. Climbing is technical and thin but well protected.

P3 5.8 80' 10 bolts

Follow bolts up through small roof to 2 bolt belay. Alpine draw for 3rd bolt helpful. Bolt needed to be left due to rock quality.
