Michael Strassman Memorial Route, Pitch 1.

Short pitch to avoid post holing through the soft snow field guarding the approach gully.

Final pitch runout. Traverse right off the belay then straight up for the largest holds

Vitaliy found one knob to sling on the last pitch, it didn't hold.

Jugging on the FA.

P1 up some kitty litter lined cracks that leads to great clean clean granite for the next 5 pitches!

View of the approach gulley from across the valley. You can avoid fighting through some of the manzanita if you drop bellow the boulders and follow a small trail before heading back up some boulders

Perhaps a little camera tilt going on...this thing is steep though!

Vitaly M. on Pitch 3 I believe.

Scotty Nelson on Pitch 5.
