Decent: There are only rap rings at the top of P2 and P3. We skipped P4 as the walk off decent was ill-advised on Mountain Project. We rapped P3 towards climbers' left of route away from climbers below then walked off climbers left top of P2.

Very enjoyable route with excellent views. Did the whole thing in approach shoes. Be very careful, when climbing AND when rappelling, if there are other parties on the climb as there is tons of loose rock. I was almost hit by rockfall and another person climbing that day was hit and requires a new helmet. If nothing else communicate with the other parties and be LOUD!
