This route ascends the longest stretch of face/slab on the quartzite North East Face of DeMoisy Peak.

Pitch #1: The good quality quartzite is oddly bleached a whitish gray hue. Start up an arête past a few faint overlaps to a hand crack trending left and away from the edge. On very nice edges continue left and up to a belay on a ledge. 5.8, 30m.

Pitch #2: Move the belay to the far left side of the ledge. Start up to the right of a massive right facing dihedral which veers left and follow the line straight up the slab passing some welcome fixed protection to a belay station. 5.10a/b, 40m

3rd class a short stretch of broken up rock to the summit ridge.

Walk off to the West. Rappelling the route is also possible.

On The Fly

Lone Tree

The most prominent right facing dihedral on the face will be the route.  Start in a shaded alcove above the big healthy tree. This has most likely been climbed before and is very fun easy climbing.

Pitch #1: Pass an initial awkward bulge and follow good cracks to the top of the climb and the top of the peak. 5.7, 70m.

Walk off.
