Last 600 feet or so to Black Kaweah's summit on the Southwest Face route. The summit block looks harder than it is. A straightforward (but steep) ramp leads diagonally to the final short chimney. The chimney contains some intimidating 4th class...uh, I mean, "3rd class" moves for your downclimbing pleasure.

Note: the red line is only a guide, not an absolute. Choose your own route, at your own risk. In particular, you will probably avoid the steep section in the middle of the photo by climbing a spur on climber's left.
