This is a nice, very obscure, very well hidden short easy trad route. It is a left facing dihedral that is initially a finger crack which widens to hands and eventually wider but by the then you are climbing the featured face.

The top out is exciting and exposed.

This route is located on the East face of the spire. Locate a right slanting crack and follow it until you can launch out on the face to the left. You'll be on a ledge under a slabby, lichen coated face. Uncover the lone bolt and boulder past it to the SE arete to the left. Follow the arete to a bushy ledge. From the ledge bushwhack left to an open area and scramble up a second, short pitch to the most amazing summit in RRG!

Downclimb the scramble and rappel near the top of the first pitch.

I give it two stars for the summit. The climb alone would be a one star route.

Ascend the right facing flake to a bulge and then up a short dihedral to sketchy anchors. With traffic this route could erode into something nice.

The start is awkward and the crux. Once you get into the main part of the crack you get good stances and good moves. Unfortunately the main part is too short. Belay on a ledge before the acute dihedral.

We found an ancient steel hex buried in the crack attached to some nearly completely deteriorated webbing.

On the east end of the large boulder below the east face of Major's Pinnacle start on a rounded ledge and climb up to the apex of the rock.

Traverse the sharp summit and down climb somewhere.
