Chuck at the top of P1 in good spirits, unlike below at the roof crux (based on what we could hear from the belay ledge, the roof didn't go too well!).<br> Photo by Luke Clarke.

You can protect the roof well, but choose carefully. This is no place to hang around fiddling with all those fancy cams.
This juggy but strenuous roof was the consensus crux in our party of three. You're starting close to a ledge so there's little margin for error, no rope out and a nearly full rack hanging over your shoulder.

Chuck reaching for the top. In the area of the belay bolts, the rock becomes more crumbly, the crack ends, and the dihedral morphs into a huge concave roof. Going up is out of the question, even on aid (without bolting). Going right to finish on the mixed route to the right might be possible.<br> Photo by Luke Clarke.

A different perspective. The Citadel offers a lofty perch. Nate A on pitch 2. 10-17-09.
OK, Ivan's got the high jug but it takes some good foot work to get to the rest that you want real bad when you're here.
Chuck laybacking the "splinter" P2 dihedral crack. Photo by Luke Clarke, hanging from the bolts at the end of the climb. I led on doubles, lowered, then TR'd Luke and Chuck each on a single strand.
