Route Comment

The second edition of Secor incorrectly locates Zig Zag Dihedral to the left of Red Baron Tower.

From the base of Red Baron Tower, climb up and right on a huge ramp system to the center of the large, monolithic south face of Peak 3985m aka Peak 12,960+ aka peak 13,016. At the highest point of the ramp, climb up into the large, right-facing Zig Zag Dihedral.
