Walk off the north end of the ledge onto the ridge. You couldn't drag a hurt climber off that way but it'd get you to the top where you could start the 3-ring circus on Westward Ha.


Yeah, I should have mentioned that, although it is no picnic. You can also rap to the boulder field and traverse that North and then ascend to the ridge. Either option will be time-consuming.

hey, I'm driving a standard with a right leg in a cast. Actually, I broke mine just before I had to leave for the airport to go to a medical conference, so I "ran" through two airports on a broken foot that was not yet in a cast or on crutches. That hurt.
