Summer Sojourn starts off to the right of this photo and ends in the top-middle. Note the shadowed roof up and right - P1 passes by this on the left.

3rd pitch chimney. Too strenuous/awkward to place gear early if you start off chimney'ing from the belay.

Approximate topo of our 4 pitches on Right On. Cut left at a dike after a handcrack bulge on pitch 4. The route description in the Bob Gaines new "Best Climbs" book is well, pretty much, right on.

Comments: Was able to rap to the ground from P1 on a friends 60m - so it all depends on how long your 60m is!

Also, for a first lead, P1 of Ending Crack is much, much better and I'd say a grade easier than P1 of Tree Root.

Comments: Always went straight up to [what I know now] is the second bolt. The slab just past the first bolt is definitely 5.9.

Comments: Single rack to #2 will do just fine. Didn't use doubles or nuts at all.

Fun. Pretty slabby for most of the route.

Comments: Atop the dihedral, we went right up a groove. A couple not great small placements and 5.7 face climbing leads to a bolt, then easier climbing past two more bolts to a two bolt belay in a scoop. Last pitch from here goes up with no pro to top out.

Fun route.

Comments: Committing, unprotected moves to start. Only a handful of memorable moves after that. Sling long and easily done in one pitch.

Comments: Look like some home-made hangers.
Left start is ~10a, starting on the right keeps it 5.9
