Looking at the second crux which involves a few feet of precarious stemming and/or crimps for the hands. Luke stemmed straight up. I faced left with my back aggainst the right wall and walked my feet up the quartz dike. These moves are the crux for me. After this, step up right onto yet another slab and angle right to the 2-bolt anchor.

Third pitch.
On Ballet viewed from the start of the route.<br /><br />Approach: Scramble up a ramp to a small ledge and set up an anchor. <br /><br />Pitch 1: Climb a thin crack in a corner, step left and climb a slab, then climb a steep corner with a hand crack and move left to a good belay ledge.<br /><br />Pitch 2: Traverse right and climb a right-facing corner to a slab. Angle left up the slab to a chimney/gully and continue to a 2-bolt anchor.

On Ballet viewed from the approach trail.<br /><br />Approach: scramble up a ramp to a small ledge and set up an anchor.<br /><br />Pitch 1: climb a thin crack in a corner, then work left and climb a slab. Climb a steep corner with a hand crack and move left to a good belay ledge.<br /><br />Pitch 2: traverse right and climb a right-facing corner to a slab. Angle left up the slab to a chimney/gully, and continue up to a 2-bolt anchor.<br /><br />Pitch 3: Move right and climb a flake with a wide crack, then up a slab to a big ledge.<br /><br />Rappel descent (easier): traverse right on the ledge to a 2-bolt rappel anchor with slings, then do two rappels to the gully by Bolt Cola.<br /><br />Walk-off descent (longer): traverse left across chimney, then continue left on ledges until it's possible to down-climb to easier terrain.
