First pitch of Fingertip.

First pitch of Fingertrip

A look down at the polished granite (and my irregular shadow) of the slabby left finish.

Messing around on the third pitch of Fingertrip

Climbers topping out on Fingertrip (viewed from near the true summit). This is the 5.4 slab finish. To get here, head up and left from Lunch Ledge toward a tree and then up to a single bolt.

Mark Pierson past the 1st pitch crux and nearing p1 belay on Finger Trip.

Looking back at Mark Pierson on the last pitch of Finger Trip.

1st time climbing fingertrip on May 16, 2013! @ Lunch Ledge after leading the 1st and 3rd pitch. Super stoked!! WOOHOOO!!

The fantastic first pitch of Fingertrip.

Looking up at the route. P3 climbs the undercling roof that traverses from R to L at dead center. Then climb through the veggies to Lunch Ledge at the level of the top of the tree in the upper left corner.

Reckless soloist with approach shoes on very "loose" blocks of P1.

Exposure on P2

Black totem placement for the 5.1 exit pitch.

start of the second pitch leading to the under cling arch!

Nina Rapaport leading the 3rd pitch of Finger Trip at Tahquitz

Looking down the dihedral nearing the top of P1. The 5.8 variation follows the thin fingercrack lieback up the dihedral and the original 5.7 follows the slanting crack to the left. Do the lieback :)

Crowded belay station.

In the middle of the slab

climbing up pitch two past the traverse

Pitch 4 finish. Easy slab section but a bit runout until you get to the small tree. There is an orange bolt soon after.

cheesin' at the second (not great) belay after the traverse

Friction top out.
