Broken Ambience

This climb slowly (and literally) ramps up throwing fun easy/moderate climbing at you along the way. Start up an easy short and wide corner onto the low angle slab. Follow cracks slight left to a small roof near the arete. Turn the arete, and locate 2 parallel 5.7 hand cracks. Follow these through some amazing flakes, and finish at the small pine growing horizontally out of the face that provides a semi-hanging belay. We slung it and left webbing and a couple biners for a first pitch due to nightfall. Approach: Hike up into the valley below the peak until you see a talus boulder jumble leading northwest toward the summit. Follow this until you reach the obvious large south/east-facing ridge. This is located on the left side of the east face before the cliff turns and faces south. Scramble up to a flat belay area just below the corner/arete on the east side. Start at a small constriction/short wide crack leading up to low angle slabs and the arete above and on the left.
