Topping out on the 3rd pitch.

My partner kicked this rock off while rapping. I was caught at the anchor and could only duck down. It broke in half over my shoulder and helmet. Be careful, still some loose stuff up there.
My kid painted the route for us. Pitch 2 and 3 shown here. We did not mark the pro as we cannot recall which pins sucked and which ones could maybe hold.
