UKC

2 pitches. Climbs the East Summit of Rexford through cracks that link ledges, with the final pitch being the incredibly aesthetic and exposed finger to hand crack on the arete straight to the summit pinnacle.

Approach: As for West Ridge. The route generally starts before you pass underneath a large roof.
Pitch 1: Climb cracks between ledges until you can belay underneath a blocky groove directly underneath the arete crack.
Pitch 2: Head up to the arete crack, make an exposed step, and climb up the finger to fist-sized crack until the top. Finish either via a narrow chimney or hand crack.

βeta: Grade is given somewhere between 5.8 and 5.10a (depending on line taken?). I felt it was somewhere between 5.9 and soft 5.10a, but have chosen 5.10a on account of it being in the alpine.
