Looking back at the traverse pitch (pitch 4). There is one spicy exposed move (protectable), then smooth sailing. There may be an alternative by going around to the right of the very top of the east buttress, but we didn't try that.

We descended one gully to the south of what's shown in the topo. Getting to the gully was an adventure, but except for this guy, uneventful going down.
Looking up at the 1st pitch. Climb in the gulley for a few moves, then exit right and head for the tree.

Topo showing Orgy on the East Buttress of ORP
Max taking us off ORP, up the one "5.6" move (crumbly rock), through the rock tunnel, and out to the SE chute walk-off…. No raps needed via this descent.
Pitch 3's Chimney - again, not a chimney climb. Exited to the right, just before the green clump of grass.
