East Face to Gunsight Notch

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

There are two obvious ways up to Gunsight Notch.

The preferable way is to climb on top of the exposed flake and crack system. This protects well.

You can also climb the ledge below the flake and crack system, which is what's left of Upper Broadway Ledge, through a medium-sized tree. This approach does not protect as well and disturbs the tree.

Location

Start at the medium-sized tree on the north end of Upper Broadway Ledge, where the ledge has narrowed and starts to go up toward Gunsight Notch.

Protection

Standard rack, although this is a very short route. You can easily set up a gear belay on Gunsight Notch with medium sized pro. Alternatively, a pair of rappel shuts are right over the lip of Gunsight Notch.
