The upper part of Get Schwifty gets more difficult because of the exposure. A few turns gone wrong and the fall could be bad, but the trail itself really isn't too technical. There is a great view right at one of the pointy mesa edges that gives you a great view of Flagpole as it makes its way up from the 5-Way.
The final climbing sections are pretty narrow with some sharp rocks that push you towards the exposure, so be careful.
