Easier climbing to start the 4th pitch, which links nicely with the 5th for a long mega-classic!

The rating of this route is not indicative of the difficulties. When the climbing tips into the 5.10 range it is protected with a bolt but the true challenges of this climb are keeping it together on 5.8 wandering slab way out over a bolt.
Looking down the 3rd pitch groove. Be careful not to take a factor 2 fall onto the belay on this pitch!
