After topping out on the four-pitch Geronimo, we just couldn't stop climbing. The pitch pictured here went at 5.6 or 5.7 and featured stellar quality rock. The final pitch included fun but runout slab followed by a chossy 5.8+ chimney. This led to the summit of Jackrabbit Buttress and a walkoff by way of Brownstone Wall.

The start to the wonderful (if just a touch crispy) P.4 of Geronimo. It's all jugs, but be careful, and you'll have to be a little creative to find great gear. The positioning is spectacular.

Stellar first pitch of Geronimo

This shows the area you'll be exploring if you continue past the top of Geonimo (end of pitch 4) and try to get to Brownstone Wall or the walk off.
