May the force be with you, always.

Nice view after whipping on some variant to P2. The flume is on the right of the photo. This variant has a 20 or so foot run-out between the last piece of gear and a bolt. Very spicy.

Messing around on the third pitch

Cassie leading pitch 4, the Skywalker pitch.

Pitch 2, 3 and 4

Kalina getting off the ground.

Looking down the first pitch. Apparently you can go two ways. I've only done the slab option.

Catherine on the money pitch

Sonia on the pitch 1 slab

Me questing up the 5.8 crack pitch, after climbing a number of corner cracks in my time it feels comparable to like 5.10b.

The finish of the EPB Variation (soft 5.10a).

Looking up the 2nd pitch, the "Flume".

Climbers on pitch 2

This is me belaying Elle up from the higher belay station, the gentleman to the left is at the lower station.

One of several belay stations at the top of pitch 2

Pitch 1 can be wet at the base. But just for a few moves. And there is a bolt.

pitch 4

myself on the Skywalker pitch

The start of the EPB Variation (soft 5.10a)

Me climbing up the money pitch, lots of friction and good placements, my kind of climb.

Winnie running through the slab near the top of P1.
