Heading up the first 10+ pitch, pitch 4. Steep, sustained, engaging with a fun crux pulling through the bulge in the pale rock.

Climber nearing the anchors of P3. Several options to reach the anchors, all involving a traverse right at some point after passing the last bush. Can continue up main crack, or branch off to one of two other cracks.
The spectacular climbing and position on pitch 8. Brilliant!

Finishing up pitch 6. The exposure is incredible!
Starting into the crux of pitch 4. Fun, exposed moves to move past the bulge where the crack peters out for ~20 ft.
Heading up P7. Engaging, exposed, and rediculously fun.

Heading up the short P5, easily linked with P6 with an 80. (Probably doable with a 70, too)
Looking up from the base. Climber about to move left after finishing the most awkward part of P1. Majority of route can be seen, going almost center line up, passing the roof just on the right hand side.
Allen following up Pitch 4, possibly the best pitch of 5.10 I've ever climbed!
