Starting at the extreme north end, continue to follow the NE ridge to the ridge proper blossoming in front of you. Just to the right of a somewhat protruding (overhanging) rock there is a short 8’ crack. At the top of this crack a short climbing traverse (decent holds, but not bomber) leads directly to a small chute which then deposits you on top. A short but exposed crawl or straddle leads to the north summit.
I could probably add a little for the North Summit, but I didn't check out the other routes or actually go to the top of the South Summit. So I wouldn't really feel right trying to help other people. (Nor do I live in California.)
OK, well, if you have any additional changes, post them here and I'll integrate them accordingly. Have been trying to get rid of the Tressider route pages for a while. I have attempted and failed to summit both the south and north summits. So I'm a terrible individual to be maintaining the page! I was one of the first SP members, though, and at that time we had a shortage of members!

Re: Tresidder - North Summitblueshade -- thanks!
Do you have an interest in taking ownership of the route? I'm not in California anymore.
