Enjoy simple 2nd and 3rd class bouldery terrain until you reach the valley bottom and get back on the trail. I will mention that some locals took it upon themselves to remove most all of the rock stacks...
The rock stacks the locals removed may be the ones that tricked me into absent-minded-ly descending a few hundred extra feet when I did those peaks a couple years ago.
