This is a 400+ foot easy scramble on great rock, it could be a nice initiation to soloing.

Start just right of the low point of the rock, at the far left of the East face. The first two moves will be the hardest moves of the climb so feel free to blow it.

Scramble up to the ridge and follow it to a notch.

Traverse to the West and North behind the pinnacle and scramble up the ridge once more to the summit, moving to the East face for the final moves.

Descent - scramble down the Northwest ridge to the base (class 4).

Southeast Ridge

Tunnel Route

East Face Center

Climb up to, under and through the tunnel created by a huge flake. This is easy to moderate climbing, but beware of loose rock down low.

This route is a variation to the East face worth doing for only the completest who is looking for something new here. The poor rock at the beginning might be the mental crux, but the hardest moves are tucking into the tunnel and getting started inside.

Start off on a "slippery when wet" series of jugs in the center of the more Northward buttress of the Lost Porch, and climb those up and to a spire-like false summit about 180' up (est.). Come down to the SW onto a ledge, and then continue up the clean and juggy East Face of the true summit of the entire formation another 80'. The summit block is a balanced slab wedged between spires and offers cool views of the Back Porch and Skunk Canyon.
