Comments: The continuation to the route Guiding Lights first two pitches, is called "Heavens Door" . This route continues up for three more pitches.

Comments: The lady pillar was a great warm up route for this area, I origionally climbed this route with sibylle hechtel, we were doing a first ascent, perhaps 5.9, a beautiful lady deserves a beautiful climb. I'm sure we were the first ones to put in the anchors. I don't remember seeing Josh that day. Keith Reynolds
