Michael -

 

sorry I was not clear. My understanding is they climbed a completely different line up to the major bench half-way up the climb. It is supposed to be to the right of the regular direct start.

Oh, well that's different. Sorry I though you meant like the 1st pitch! Cool! I wasn't paying any attention to the right side on the approach, and I couldn't see anything on that side once up on the climb. One thing I did notice was that the further right one climbs on the ridge, the worse the rock got. Probably one of those unrecorded ascents. AAJ doesn't bother with such routes anymore it seems. Let's ask Mr. Beckey, he'll know.

 

HEY FRED! Anyone done the right side of the buttress direct? P.S. update your topo.
