Starting the crux pitch. I traversed right then straight up to the remaining bolts. Look for a good cam placement between the first and second bolts. Considerably difficult and mentally strenuous for me. Nevertheless, an awesome pitch.

Chuck following P3 on self-belay as Luke belays me on P4.

Chuck's following P2 on self-belay. Notice that he's more or less hiking no hands up the low angle slab.

P2 beautiful corner.

Standing below our mission. Ryan Glaze and I enjoying the view below the Ramblin' Rose Roof. Ryan's first climb and my craziest lead.

On the topo: "I" is Ramblin Rose. <br>

The 5.10 first pitch is labeled J. Needs new bolts! <br>

The 5.4 first pitch is shown as the start for five routes; E, F, G, I, and the empty circle which is Over the Edge. The easy start is steep and well protected (camalots #1-#3 and long runners). Place some bomber cams in the Hill Route crack and the rope will run better for the down-climb to the bolt anchor on El Supremo.

Scott follows the combined P3/4 for Ramblin' Rose. We did it in 4 pitches. Nice route, great day out.

That's pretty neat!

Great day!

Finishing pitch four. No more button heads!

The fun pitch under the big roof.

P2 is really low angle, but lots of fun. Run it out if you want, and get gear whenever you want. There's a good belay at two bolts after 100' with a big diagonal crack for your feet. Photo by Luke Clarke.

Underclinging the overhanging corner between bolts 3 and 4. I places a couple of small nuts at the bottom of the corner to protect the move up to the corner. The nuts pulled out soon after I clipped the 4th bolt out to the right. Photo by Chuck Graves.

On the P4 crux pitch, approaching the 2nd bolt. I placed a couple of trad pieces down and right from the first bolt. Photo by Chuck Graves.

P3 is rated 5.8, but felt much easier. Above Luke, rather than following the roof, you traverse straight right along a very hollow flake to the belay. The belay is one good bolt, one poor bolt, a fixed nut (maybe), and other trad gear.
