Climb on the east side of the formation. Scramble up low-angle terrain to first bolt. Move past this and the next one and you're through the crux. Climb the thin face to the top.

Nuts

Pistachio Arete

Scoop Ejector

Nutty Buddy

Hardest route on the formation (if you stick to the arete). Toprope left arete of formation from anchors of "Nutty Buddy".

New route up right side of formation. Climb the challenging scoop, then up and right, over the shallow dihedral, then up the face over quality rock. Lower off of mussy hooks.

Climb up the left side of the north face of the formation. Crux is pulling the bulge immediately off the ground. Generic Alabama Hills edge pulling the rest of the way.
