Nick hitting the jug on the spicy face pitch(4). Crazy fun movement a good ways above your gear makes this section unforgettable on a super classic climb.

Nick, near the topout of Kingpin. Another great pitch on a climb stacked with them. Perfect hands plus plenty of face holds keeps the grade around 5.8.
Just through the stemming corner and onto the thuggy OW section.

Isiah above the wide flake (note the gear above in horizontal) and before the left traverse along the horizontal crack system. Protect the follower if doing it this way!

Lovely exposure on pitch four
Nick coming up the final traverse bit on pitch 3.
The crux stemming corner on pitch 2.
Heather Hayes follows the crux pitch of Kingpin (it protects really well with RP's and small cams)

After the traverse and into the blocky section before the belay ledge at the base of the final, stellar dihedral.
Isiah on the delicate traverse up and over from the belay ledge for P4. Heady start and different from the way we did it (straight up, kinda like the photo with Nick shows). Emily belaying.
Hopefully helpful to see the whole route for folks like me just getting to know my way around the mountain.
