After approx. 10 minutes up the JMT from the Cathedral Lakes trailhead, you will see the obvious climbers trail on the left blocked by a log. The trail runs parallel to Budd Creek for a good portion of the hike then wraps around the left(East) side of Cathedral Peak.

Such a great view from the summit

This, I may say, is the first time I have been at church in California.

Alternate 5.7 route to the left of the chimney, the so-called 'glory arete'. The chimney had a traffic jam this day, so we followed a yosar'ers advice. Beautiful pitch, fantastic exposure!

A great 5.8 variation right of the chimney. If the chimney is clogged , move right , around a corner, about 20 feet to some great stemming, chimney climbing . A few old pitons and good gear on this pitch.
