Christian Feinauer leading the 3rd pitch. He's well past the difficulties, but still at least 20 feet from the first bolt.

Don't miss bolt 6! The route is scary enough. Ended up too far left and blew it, didn't fall and things worked out. lines to show where bolt six is and how I got off route.

P3 - the immaculate golden patina that starts the final pitch

p3 anchor and start of the raps. The large pine tree in the center of the frame is a good landmark. It is at roughly the same height as the anchor and immediately across the rap gully.
