This is the type of scrambling you'll be doing on the way up and more importantly on the way down. The flat spot with a few folks hanging out is the Eagle's Nest, a great spot for those who want a break or a turnaround point before the scrambling.

Nothing short of spectacular!
The face after exiting the chimney. Sticking far right next to the chimney yields the best rock and least exposure.

View halfway through the chimney. The notch on the left is where you exit to climb the face. If you miss this exit it is mandatory 5th class to get to the ridge.
View below the chimney, exit half way through the chimney onto the face on the left.

Panoramic view. On the right you are looking south, down valley towards Durango. The road cut you see is the road leading up to Coalbank.
