Ryan having some fun on the first pitch. This is a nice little area to relax after working through that body jam.

Approximately in green, a variation to the upper half of Revenge of the Elderly done in one pitch. Something like this is shown in Mike Hill's Guide. Small and sparse gear, clean rock, plus enough rope drag that the move across to the top anchor feels a little like a tension traverse. 60 meter rope works - not sure about a 50 meter rope. Photo and yellow markings courtesy of Monomaniac and Chris Wenker.

Nearing the P1 crux of Emerald City. Due to the camera angle, the crux section appears to be just down and left of the climber. The fixed piton is at the top of the diminishing, left-facing dihedral in shade, just left of the climber's left foot.
