5 pitches.
Accidental first ascent trying to find angles steps, with the objective of rescuing gear left in desert rats.
nice little alpine route with good rock and varied terrain. 1232m Dome. Contour round from Desert Rats in to the canyon on the north west side. On the right side of the canyon scramble up a few steps and circumnavigate twin cracks to reach the bottom of the gully. Head up the gully either in it or along the wall and at the top of the gully head right to a big plateau. From here snake your way up the melting wax wall to reach the summit. About 4 hours, shade in the morning. Take plenty of slings and extenders for threads.
Descent
via Desert Rats, find the basin on the east side, cairns, 5 rappel
