MapDescription
A classic tundra and slab hike leading directly to the north summit. A great rest day scramble or kids, short rope climb. To the right of the North Tower and The Dihedrals is a tundra ramp system that rises up and slightly left. Mostly a narrow trail through hummocks, a short rock slab at 1/3 height is the only 4th class. This very short, 3m black, low angled slab to the left side of a solid block can be climbed easily with out hands when dry. Above the block the passages become even more classic leading up a left to the huge talus that make up the nice summit.
Location
Obvious, lowest angled weakness in West Face right of North Tower.
Protection
Perhaps, A very short rope for children, otherwise only sticky sneakers. Same for the way down.
