The final P7, another long friction pitch. Bring cams to set up the belay, I think I used a .5, 1, and 2

Climber near the top of Absinthe - taken from the top of Too Tough to Die.

Start up dihedral to first bolt.

Sitting in the hot tub like bowl at the top of the climb.

Tricky moves on the traverse right on the upper part of pitch 2...My partner described the crux move shortly off the belay down low as a "tall person's move"..I'm not usually much for that excuse but I had to agree with him, I could barely do it on second, and that was with the benefit of using a slot where he had a yellow alien as a hold..

My attempt at a topo, if somebody notices anything that's completely off please let me know

At the anchor for pitch three, probably the most closely bolted pitch of the climb

P6, a long friction pitch.
