This is the belay ledge at the top of the second pitch on The Mummy. It's no lunch ledge like on Jim Dandy but it is a very spacious ledge. We fit 4 people here and it wasn't even really crowded.

Mummy buttress, count the climbers!

Topo of route. Stretch the rope, use long draws and find belays where appropriate.

Starting up the Mummy

where I made the anchor at end of p1. note there is a bigger ledge 5 feet down but I liked the protection better at the one I am standing at.

Pitch 2

Starting off on P3. Easy climbing (5.3) leads to the summit of the mummy buttress. We climbed the route on December 30, 2005. Probably the coldest climbing day I have ever experienced. Numb fingers makes 5.5 feel like 5.10!
