Great page Jim. I plan on doing this route in the summer of 08. It seems similar in comparison to Pagoda's N. Buttress as far as the amount of time it would take to hike in and climb. do you agree? Thx!

Re: Well Done!
Hey Foxy (Gurly)
Thanks for the interest in the Warbonnet. If you do the route the way Brad & I did it should be a bit more pleasant than Pagoda's North Buttress because the rock is much better and it's in the sunshine by mid-morning. The one drawback that seems to keep many folks from doing a second ascent is the long approach ... it's quite a bit longer than the approach to Pagoda, and therefore requires a very long day.
Good climbing, Happy Holidays & Peace, Jim
