Ever climb the "West Face Route 5.8" or the "South Face Route 5.7" on North Dome in Yosemite?

These routes are just to the left of the famed "Crest Jewel 5.10a" on North Dome which I followed several years ago. One of these may be the top of the "Royal Arches Route" which starts on the Valley floor, but I don't want to do the entire "Royal Arches", I want to approach from the Tioga highway side and end the route back at the top of North Dome.

I've gone up Half Dome, along with a million others, but never North Dome.

Good luck. It sounds like it will be a great experience.
