Description

This fun route ascends clean, exposed, alpine granite. From the bolted belay, climb onto the arete and follow it up to an engaging face that tops out on a beautiful ledge system.

Location

Approach by climbing the stellar 5.7,

Lincoln Lake Apron

. From the last belay, traverse left to a bolted belay station at the base of the arete (red and yellow dotted line on topo).

It is also possible to rappel 30 meters from the route's summit anchors to a ledge, above and left of the bolted belay, with a separate anchor. From the ledge, three or four bolts connect to the headwall, bypassing the arete.

Protection

Bolts to fixed anchors.
