Unknown climber on upper pitches of Acid Baby.

Janet on top of Aasgard Sentinel. Both Acid Baby and The Valkyrie share the same final pitch and both top out here. The 5.6 downclimb is on the right side of the tower where the rope is.

Starting the last pitch!

Gully descent, taken from This My Friend.

This was taken from just below the 5.6 downclimb from the top of Aasgard Sentinel. The standard descent is to hike up this slope to the Enchantment Peak Plateau and then romp back down to Aasgard Pass and back to your packs at the base of the route.

The first pitch of Acid Baby. Awesome 5.9+ corner!!

Beware of loose rock on P3 right variation (slab)

Pitch 7. Very exposed ridge.

Upper route.

Approaching the climb. Climber already on the first pitch

Matt heading up P3. We took the left variation up the gully, NOT reccomended. Tons of large loose blocks with your belayer directly in the line of fire.

Somewhere in the middle of the trip.

Gully descent, part way down, looking back up toward the start notch.

Following pitch 6.

Logan leading P5 with belayer on the comfortable ledge above P4 finger crack (lower left of photo). Cool exposure on climber's right toward the top of this pitch. Taken from the top of Aasgard Pass

Alex leading the P6 fin traverse with belayer at top of P5. This was a surprisingly long pitch and probably impossible to communicate without breaking into two pitches or carrying radios.
