yes, it would be a fantastick option. bring tennis shoes for the hike down. i haven't done it, but know many that have and from what they have said, it sounds right up your alley. have fun!!!
p.s. i'm sure the guidebook is plenty to figure out the route and gear. there a about a billion options (i've been at lots of the belays for s.e corner for other climbs) so be very discrimination about which way you go (follow your nose).
