Rupley Tower C. Pitch 1 of R3 starts at the arrow on the bottom right and ends at the chains indicated by the arrow at the middle left of the frame. P2 works the cracks up and to the right, and ends up top. The top arrow and waving gentleman mark the location of the 2-bolt belay station for P2. Rap off the back side of the tower with another 2-bolt setup up top.
Throwing the rope.
