Otto's RouteFun route, exciting at the top, interesting history - an enjoyable but quick climb. Climbed with Joe Bullough.

Climbed via Otto's RouteI almost feel guilty signing this, after all my rope hanging and piton grabbing. But, I stood on top... Climbed with Brian on a very nice cool and sunny morning. Fun climb, with some interesting history behind it.

Route Climbed: Otto's Route Date Climbed: Summer 1990 + 1991Climbed this once with my brother Mike and another time with my brother Mark. The first time we arrived late and decided to just hike over and take a look from the base. We ended up back at the car in three and a half hours with the route under out belts. Needless to say it goes fast. I agree with rpc that it's more of a grade II.
