5th/6th Pitches- 50m- 5.9R/ We combined these pitches with a 70m rope. The best climbing of the route is probably the first half of this section. Head straight up, but don’t get sucked into following the corner too far left (eagles nest above). Instead, look for a break up and right to a ledge with a fixed belay. Traverse right to another corner. Your rope will cause some rock fall, but the belayer will be far left of any at this point. Take the corner to the top. The topo claims off width, but mostly just a stem corner.
