Starting on a jug slot low on the arete, climb the roof section through holds on the arete and grips under the roof. Crux moves involve moving into a undercling and crimp. From here make a long move to a shallow dish and top out.

Approach notes
Continue down the dirt road (off season) for 20 minutes (0.8 miles) passing the pipeline cut. Once past the pipe cut the road deteriorates into a primitive road. Continue for 12 minutes (745 yards) until you enter a grove of evergreens. Turn right (north) into the forest and find your way to the boulders in 5 minutes (330 yards). You should arrive at Tyson A. You can follow the band of rock west for more climbing. To reach Darkside C head uphill from and pick up some game trails along the rim of the outcropping to get you there.
