This route is well named. It climbs a tasty, rippled face of gneiss with an interesting variety of crimpers, slopers, and pockets. The rock itself is very good quality, though it's a little grainy from lack of traffic. I think it would clean up very well. This is worth doing if you hiked all the way up here.

P1: Start on jugs to the left of an awkward fist crack (or climb up the crack) then angle left and up to a stance under a small roof with a fixed pin way to the right (long runner).  Turn the roof to the left into the leaning dihedral and up to a small belay stance below the huge roof.  Watch your rope drag on this pitch.

P2: Continue up the dihedral and then hand traverse out right under the roof.  Pull around the roof on huge jugs and enjoy the view!

Walk off to the east.
