The top of the third pitch, the friction slab, and the final scramble to the top. You can also see the first rap on the tree, and the first of the two bolted rap stations.

Expect at least this many people on sunny summer weekends after the snow is gone.

Rappelling down it is easy to miss the 2nd (last) set of chains - they are closer than you think: on the first sandy ledge with trees - don't go past them (as happened to me and 2 other parties after me).

Pitch 3 Beta - I found the description confusing here since there are multiple roofs and corners.

The short slab near the top of the Beckey Route. Might be harder than 5.6? It's a boulder problem, but you wouldn't want to blow it. I'd do a quick belay if there are any doubts for any member of the team, especially when downclimbing.

This shot shows the chimney system. It's really fun climbing.

Don't forget to take in the "small" views as well.

The block above the end of the roof traverse on P3 seems to be slightly loose. It was fine when I pulled up on it with my hands today (9/23/17) but when I matched a foot on top of it and went to stand up it wiggled. Use caution and be aware of freeze-thaw conditions.
