| heather14 | East Ridge  Date Climbed: Nov 21, 2009 | |
| Climbed the East Face w/Jamie. Fun climb and great views. I think Jamie's use of the word awkward fittingly descibes the rappel we ended up on! | |

| shanahan96 | unexpected expectanties Date Climbed: Nov 21, 2009 | |
| climbed w/heather, the first pitch getting onto the east ridge was quite challenging and took us a good chunk of time. we thought it was rough for 5.5. once on the ridge we enjoyed fun, easier(5.0-5.4) climbing to the summit. the rappels were quite an adventure as we seemed to have wandered too far right and found ourselves in some awkward positions before reaching the ground. is there two rappel stations halfway down? certainly seems that way.... jamie | |

| SarahThompson | North Face start, took two tries Date Climbed: Oct 6, 2007 | |
| North face (5.6) start. After two pitches the north face route joins the slightly easier east ridge route. First attempted this in March and had to give up because the shaded rock was too cold and my fingers were totally numb. Sulked while my partners continued on :(. Went back on a warmer day and made it, though the first pitch on the north face still seemed rather difficult. The upper east ridge part of the route is all fun, easy scrambling. | |

| difficult first pitch. the rock was cold in the shade and your hands become numb. harder to climb like that! | |
