Great route to do Nihahi and Compression Ridges, much more superior than the one published in Kane's scramble book. Enough exposure near the highpoint of Compression Ridge to justify the "difficult" rating.

Obstacles

road/access issues, routefinding, stream crossing, bushwhacking, blowdowns, no water source, rockfall/loose rock
