Roughly the line of Serpentine is from slightly left of the base of the large tree, almost straight up the wall tending a bit left. Most of the line is visible in this picture.

Starting up Serpentine. It's a wandering sea of granite over here. Now where's the next bolt?<br>

Party bailing off the Weeping Wall after a failed wall style ascent of Serpentine.

Kade coming up 2nd pitch , Great Views across the valley

Fresh bolts on serpentine (and I believe every other route on weeping wall)

Looking down from top of P2. Missed 5th bolt, which is 10 ft below chicken head. Made it a bit 'R' :)

Josh Dibble on the sharp end, pitch three.

P2, don't meander into the 10a like me. Bad idea

Looking down from the top of the second pitch.

Wee bit run out at the end.

looking down 1st pitch of Serpentine. My rope shows (most of) the curving line.

Looking up the first pitch (the black fish looking thing in the photo is a bird flying by!).

A different view of climbers on the second pitch. Leader is just above the crux moves. 6-15-13

Albert Ramirez at the crux of the second pitch.

Regretting clipping only one of the 7.8 Monster cords about now...

Pitch 2

Planning my sequence up serpentine. Just clipped the second bolt of first pitch. After you place your first piece(either medium nut or offset cam) if you fall jump left for longer fall= Less deck potential

Moving past the high first bolt of Serpentine
