looks treacherous

reminds me of the Kelso Ridge trail on Torrey's Peak in CO. Loose rocks on dirt with a huge dropoff to the valley below.

Re: looks treacherous

Yup, that is pretty much what is was. The only difference here is there were the ocassional chimneys that were low 5th class that had to be downclimbed. The crux chimney is around 20 feet or so and some members in our crew chose to rap this instead of downclimb it.
