Start low right with two good pinches and left foot on a small tooth (blowing the foot will likely result in a stubbed toe). Throw left to the crimp a few feet up. Bump left again to the slopey crimp rail and slap the right arete for the crux. Traverse left to top out. 

Oh no, my foot!

Death Spike (aka the scoop)

Two Knuckles

Death Spike Direct

Start on the two underclings far the right side of the cracked face with high feet. move into the crack and top out on jugs.

Sit start the arete to the left of two knuckles, follow it all the way through the "scoop" on slopers until you top out on good holds directly over the "death spike".... great movement. bad landing.

Sit start the amazing scooping arete to the left of Two Knuckles. Make a big move to get off the ground and then finish directly out the arete on some difficult to see holds on the top. The topo photo with red lines indicates the direction that you would go for DS, not the direct finish.

As you approach this set it is on the right side of the trail.
