Begins at the far right corner of of the Citadel Wall. There are two ways to begin this route. Pitch 1: Begin by either climbing direct straight up 20 feet to the 2nd bolt (5.10b), or begin on the far corner slab climbing left 30 ft on the friction slab (5.9+). Continue following bolts up the slab to the belay anchors (5.7). Pitch 2: from the belay climb right, then strait up following bolts for about 40 feet (5.8) until they begin angling left towards the arete on top a large roof. Follow bolts left through ledges (5.8) until the route merges with White Raven's Peril and moves onto the arete (5.7). Follow the arete to the summit (5.6). Make sure to take in the views while on the arete! Walk-off. Follow the ridge up hill until you find remnants of an undeveloped scramble trail that winds down 20 feet and then out to the left then down the left (looking downhill side of Sunspear Pinnacle.

White Raven's Peril

P1: climb the bolted off-width chimney crack (very fun 5.8) about 30 feet following bolts onto slab to belay anchors (- 5.10a ). This pitch in itself is worth the hike.P2: follow bolts right off the belay. Once you've made your second clip make the crux move (5.10d) up onto a slightly lower angle slab. Note: in a pinch the bolt can be used to aid through this move. Follow bolts up onto the headwall and out the right side under the overhang (- 5.10a). Continue following bolts left onto the arete above the overhang (5.6). Once on the arete take time to look out over the valley below! It doesn't get any better than this. Continue up the arete to the summit belay (no chains).Walk-off. Follow the ridge up hill until you find remnants of an undeveloped scramble trail that winds down 20 feet and then out to the left then down the left (looking downhill side of Sunspear Pinnacle.

Citadel Wall in approximately 200 feet in height and currently has 2 routes on it. One begins on the far right corner of the slab and the second begins in a beautiful off-width crack to the far right side. Each of these two routes have belays in the middle fairly close to each other (approximately 20 feet apart) and merge on an erete towards the top. Pulling ropes after rappelling from the top tends to be problematic so there are no chains on top and the general practice is a walk-off up the ridge and down around the north side of Sunspear Pinnacle
