This is an exhilarating and exposed classic alpine ridge rock in the heart of the North Cascades, with about 10 pitches of up to 5.6 climbing and a lot of double rope raps on the way down. Small, competent parties are best on this route. Watch for afternoon thunderstorms! Move fast and watch for rope snags on the raps.
