The traverse is easy until this point, when it gets slightly dicey. I'm climbing with double ropes. The left, blue, rope is clipped to the big cam at the top of the wide crack. I climbed several placements from there on the right, red rope, then clipped the blue to the sling over the horn midway across the traverse. I clipped the red after making the first hard move up the left crack. Rope drag was minimal this way, but the ropes are still heavy by the end of this long pitch.<br>

Chuck Graves at the 10c crux. A few more feet and you can get inside, and it eases to 5.9.

The start of pitch one is not visible in the photo. Pitch 5 is barely visible. Pitches 1 and 2 are often combined. Pitch 3 and 4 can easily be combined.

Steve finishing pitch two, miles of beautiful finger locks.

Last or 4th pitch, and a lot harder than it looks. Brad White on lead.

Steve walking the second pitch.

Luke Clarke on the 5.8 third pitch. The move off the ledge could be an ankle breaker but is over quickly, one way or another.

The 5.8 slab and the 10c crux pitch.

Captain Beyond pitch 1 from the Perversion ledge. Great December 1st weather.

Great rest here, but first you have to see it, and then you have to get into it. You can place gear over the ceiling from here.<br>

Peering up at the first hard moves. Fingertip laybacks lead to a great fingerlock, but it continues hard until you're situated in the left-facing corner.<br>

Placing gear at the base of the wide crack. A #4 Camalot is a little small at first, but you can push it up into a better spot as you thrutch your way up.<br>

Looking down the 1st pitch, Brad White climbing. This pitch sets the tone for more to come.

Bryce starting the 5.10 climbing on the final pitch— a beautiful, vertical corner to end the route!

Mickey Mouse Wall is very, very good to me.

The first move above the ceiling is pretty easy. The next move is much harder.<br>
