A mega classic, the first 3 pitches are pure quality with interesting sustained climbing. Pitch 4 can be either direct (6b), or down then up the chimney (5). Needs large cams (camalot 5 or 6) for the upper offwidth pitches, double if you want to feel secure. Bolted Anchors. Upper pitches get sun earlier than lower.

12 quickdraws (5-4 long). Descend: 4 abseils same route.

Pitch 1 (6a+):
- 25m - 10 bolts
Pitch 2 (6b+):
- 25m - 9 bolts - Can be split into 2 pitches (15m 6b 5bolts, 10m 6b+ 4bolts) - A station is placed just before the crux move, 40m from the ground - The pitch is consistent in difficulty with a crazy fun, well-protected crux move
Pitch 3 (6a):
- 25m - 9 bolts Amazing pitch, with an aerie feel, with some spaced bolting due to rock quality
Pitch 4 (5c+):
- 25 meters - 9 bolts - A slap cruise to the top
PS:
This route doesn't reach the peak (As we didn't want to get cross runner up the trad route), but if you take 4 cams with you you can traverse 5 meters left from the top station and lead the last 15 meters to the top of Runner up.

Gear:
8 Quickdraws, one set of Cams small and middle sizes, 2x 60m Ropes.
Descend:
3 abseils same route, (5th to 4th) - (4th to 1st) - (1st to the Ground).

Overall: Very nice route, with distant but solid bolts and easy-to-place intermediate protections. The difficult moves are well-protected. The wall is South Face exposed, therefore can be done only in winter times/cold days.

Pitch 1 (5b):
- 3 Bolts - Climb vertical on easy terrain (5b) but distanced bolts to a ledge and then left to the anchor (Bolted with maillon).
Pitch 2 (6a+):
- 5 Bolts - Climb above the anchor on a vertical wall, well-protected, possible to integrate, with one tricky move to stand up on a small ledge (6a+), then a traverse to the right, protected with a bolt but exposed move (6a) to the anchor (Two Bolts).
Pitch 3 (6a):
- 4 Bolts - Go up the corner, 6a, (high bolt, can integrate) then traverse on a slab to the left, 6a (easy to place protections) to a belay station (bolted with chain).
Pitch 4 (6b):
- 3 Bolts - Vertical difficult climb (6b) with a bolt very low placed and slippery feet. Then straight up with no bolts but ok protections until another bolt. Then another physical move out on a slab (6a) to the right (anchor with bolts and maillon).
Pitch 5 (6a+/b):
- 3 Bolts - Exposed traverse right with a bolt in the middle and tiny feed and holds (6a+/b), then easier terrain with a bolt and easy to protect. Reach almost the top of the wall going right. Here you can make an intermediate anchor on huge sandclocks or traverse left onto a ledge (huge rope drag) to the last anchor (one bolt and sandclocks with old ropes connecting).
Abseils
1st abseil 40m to the start of the 4th pitch. 2nd abseil, with a bit of drag to the left, to the end of the 1st pitch. 3rd abseil to the ground
