Kam gets a nice fist jam while linking the first 2 pitches of Dr. Rubo's Wild Ride in Sedona, AZ.

Claire R. executing the overhanging rap off the summit of Dr. rubos, hanging from the new rap staion. Thanks, much better as a single rope route!

Where the route is. Approach on the left side.

Me looking forward to a great adventure on Dr. Rubo's. I was lucky enough to have Scott Baxter loan me his hand jammies so I could lead the 2nd pitch solidly.

Coming up to the first belay stance.

Right after the traverse on pitch 3. Some really good no-hands foot matches on this part :)

Rappel chains. Looks like a loose hanger and two pitons. Not sure why the bolts were chopped?

Braxton climbing P1, fortunately we had a full moon, unfortunately no #2 camalots

yep

Looking up Pitch 2.

A few pounded pitons protect the start of Pitch 3. I wouldn't want to fall on them, but they give mental support.

Emmett on the giant ledge before the summit pitch

Mantel move on pitch 4, as someone who's 4.11, I could *maybe* reach the bolt on tippy-toes if leading but not easily. Chalked mark on climbers left was my partners first hold

Rappelling into the notch. Two rappels with a single 60.

Rap anchor at the north end of the summit.

Belay bolts on the top of the second pitch. Kind of a weird positioning for the belayer.

W Dylan on the nice hang at top of p3.

Looking down at the second pitch belay stance, pretty comfy.
