Location
This route and others (second pitch of North Face, Absolutely Brilliant, Second pitch of North Country, a 5.9 unnamed OW (just right of North Face), and Wall Flower) Start in (or Near) an alcove (Wide flat bench) at the base of the second pitch of North Face. To get to this alcove you can go up Stem Mister then continue up on easier terrain or do the first pitch of North Face. This is a great place to spend the day climbing away from the public. You might even mow the lawn that is there. To access Absolutely Brilliant, North country and Dragon Back you will need to 3rd class (people say this is harder than 3rd class, which it is, but the point is, it's very easy) down and right from the alcove approx 40' and then up an easy section to a bushy ledge that you can traverse along. See the Beta Picture herein for a description.
