Pitch 24 (10d), just an example of the loose rock to be encountered.

The crux move on the Wrap Around pitch. Awesome exposure!

This was probably my favourite pitch. Just such wild exposure

Looking down pitch 25 (5.9), the last pitch before the upper ridge.

Starting pitch 24, the third "10d" pitch that felt more like 10c. Very cool and continuous moves for 12 bolts.

The crux move on the Wrap Around pitch. Awesome exposure!

Below the first "10d" pitch (#22), which is really 10c. High quality climbing on pockets and tufas.

All pitches include reflective tape and pitch number. Well done!
