That rock tower makes a nice little scramble, and is easily accessed via a third-class downclimb from the Moore's Knob summit area. Watch the downclimb from the tower, though -- it's always harder coming back down than going up, but it's easy in technical rock-climbing terms.

When I get some time I'll throw in a couple of lesser-known easy routes as alternates to the classics for visitors or first time climbers there. Sentinel, Zoo View, etc., can get pretty tied up.
