The buttress has a few worthy routes. The easiest ones would be Spiderman (5.7) and In/Out of Harm's Way (5.7/5.8). There are also some higher end quality routes that we have not done (beyond our ability).
Nice one Radek, sorry did not vote on this sooner. There is a wall with some routes that, just before you go over Asterisk Pass, you would scramble right through a notch to it (so it would be above and left of AP as you look at it from the west). It had some routes that were newer a few years ago, still rough and crumbly. Some easy 7s and 8s if I remember. Would that still be considered like the back side of Christian Brothers?
The interest due to the lateness has been accumulating but we can work out a monthly payment plan I'm sure ;)
Thanks for the vote man!
"Would that still be considered like the back side of Christian Brothers? "
I think so. Think I know which routes you're talking about. They're roughly right of (when looking from west side of the pass) of where the standard start to Christian Brothers Traverse is. Some of them are probably in LAwson's booklet. Like I said, can't beat Smith for route density :)
