P3. I found the crux to be just below the third bolt.

Two old farts climbin' & jivin'. Looks like the homeless guy found an old crazy guy to take a pic with him. Conning tower in the background.

Pitch #6

Dan making the high step crux move at the top of P1 (the Agave Pitch not the Direct Line). Maybe 5.8/5.9-.

Garrett contemplating the great mysteries of the universe. Like "why did I forget my helmet?"

Some old homeless guy at the top of the submarine.

Finally got a chance to finish cleaning the Direct Variation on P4. I thought the Top Out onto the ledge (see bolt in pic) would be the hardest move but it turns out it was at the 2nd clip. Grade is likely 5.8/5.9- for this pitch.

Party of 3 heading up P3.

The Agave Pitch. Just right of the direct line. Mostly 5.6 with a tricky 5.8-ish move at the crux. Tread carefully over the spiky agave! Look for a bolt on the wall behind the agave to keep your rope from dragging through the agaves.

Hard to beat the view from the Submarine.
