Comments: Climbed this route again, for the second time, on July 3.
We started the first p at 7:45. Most of the route, and all the belays, were in the shade. I used a #4, #5 cam, and a #3 big bro, several times. I wished I had brought a # 4 big bro.
BEWARE, Large, loose blocks at the start of the 5.6 chimney,
p4, in the DeAngelo guidebook.
I would have trundled them myself but, I heard several other climbers in the area. Turns out, they were on Honeycomb Chimney.

Comments: If I do this again, I'll bring a #5 cam for P2. #4 was a little wobbly. Classic.

Comments: P1 105', mixed, 2 bolt anchor. P2, 105', trad, 2 bolt anchor.
P3 110', trad, 2 bolt anchor. P4 30', trad, 2 bolt anchor. P5, P6, P7, not sure we took the same line as Larry.
The first 3 pitches are a good 5.7 and you can rappel from here.

Comments: Wow! I've never climbed anything like this before. I was completely stumped by the crux stem move on the p7 variation. Took a long time to figure it out. Wow!

Comments: I climbed this route today 5-12-07, and loved it. Great climbing, great pro, and good belay ledges. I give it the highest rating. Good one Larry.I'd rather do this route again than Frogland. Beware of rope drag on the fourth pitch.
