The anchor to belay from. Try to keep your rope dry!
Starting the moves over the bulge and up to the last bolt.
On the low angle easy rock at the start of the 60 foot runout (it's way more than 30 feet). You can get some manky slings on crystals. There's also a small cam if you can find it, and I would have placed some decent nuts if I'd been carrying nuts. Or more likely you'll just run it out and not think about the potential ground fall.
At the jug at the bulge and the third bolt. It gets steeper here.
Contemplating the tricky moves left to the horizontal and the third bolt.
After the crux starting move on the way to the second bolt.
Jamie, Mike, Paula and Toni at the top of Four Little Fishes in 2001, I think.
