Tough chimney with minimal feet on pitch 2. Enjoyable climb

Long enjoyable climb with several interesting pitches. Good variety of both exposed climbing and fun chimneys

Climbed first two pitches again. Got scared off by some threatening clouds approaching. We should've kept climbing...

Climbed first two pitches. Bailed due to rain.

linked with super brewers for a full day out. 20 hours car to car. descent was choss. good way to end a solid rockies trip.

Linked from Ultra Brewers. I linked the first 3 pitches then we linked in groups of 2 from there. Fun climbing throughout.

The first pitch is quite dirty, slippery, insecure and not all that enjoyable. The rest of the climbing is fantastic however with the two 5.9 corner pitches on the headwall being absolute stunners!

Linked pitches all the way above Ultrabrewers. Fun and easy.

First pitch was crumbly ratshit.... the rest was great quality if a bit exposed up high.

Great climb! Good rock for most of the route, and the 10a crux took good jams and provided nice rests throughout.

A traditional climb with a good variety of rock and climbing styles. The crux pitch has some teeth on it, but comes with good protection and rests. Led pitches 1, 5, 6, and 8.

First big wall traditional route. Got sweaty but sent it. A few moves tougher than 5.6

16 hour day with rewers buttress! rad.

Great day out

Did this as a link-up with Ultra Brewers (Super Brewers). Managed to link most of the pitches (including dubious from 5th anchor to 6th anchor). Lots of fun maneuvers and generally solid rock.

Did this as a link-up with Brewer Buttress (Super Brewers). Led alternate pitches. First pitch is mighty soiled. Crux pitch made it all worthwhile!

Loose rocks and difficult route finding, but fun. Keep your eyes west for fast weather changes. If you don't plan on staying at the hut allow plety of time for the long approach.

Birthday climb! Super fun - but it took a little longer than expected and I was late to my own party that night.

Highly recommend this route!

My first alpine route (2nded). Thanks Zac
