Mate are you kidding? The 2nd pitch of EOP is easily the best arete route for the grade at Buffalo.

The 1st pitch is the dime a dozen one, scary crack with bad gear to a crumbly slab...that sort of stuff really IS everywhere up there!

I would actually recommend rapping into the start of the 2nd pitch just to avoid the 1st pitch!!
