This climb had a tiny bit of free climbing, and then mostly all aid off many bolts.  There were 35 bolts on this climb, but the bolts were removed, and this climb no longer exists.

Northeast Ridge

Sisyphus

Pitch 1-

Climb up broken rock to better rock, stem up corner past 2 drilled pins. Mantle and follow a finger crack to a good belay ledge. There are no anchors on top of pitch 1, Belay takes yellow Aliens (5.11).

Pitch 2-

Lieback strenuous thin crack (5.11) to a short OW/Chimney (5.8).  Exit the chimney and traverse up and right to a bolted belay.

Pitch 3-

This is the business pitch.  Climb the corner above the belay past a drilled pin, then traverse right on a ledge, to a poorly protected, crux move(solid 5.11). If you fell you would land on the ledge.  Once above the crux, climb 5.7 past 2 pins to the summit.

Descent-

Rappel off the Northeast side of the tower.  One 200' rappel got us to the ground, but we passed anchors on the way down.
