Route 6 is marked (roughly) by red dots - variations are possible for the first couple of pitches that gets one to the "cave". For reference, [[106351352]] is marked by white dots (roughly).

P2 of Route 6
Mark passes the bulge on P3 just below the cave. P2 starts near the snow patch directly below him and these 2 pitches are a good linkup to simul. From the snow patch to the summit (P2-P6), the rock is mostly continuous and enjoyably solid!

P6 (line "U" in Bill's photo) - exit pitch for Route 6 and Standard S Route.
Exposed view down from the top of P5 (line "X").
Looking up at P5 (line "X" in Bill's photo).
P4 traverse follows this chill ledge with fun exposure.
Nearing the top of P3: Cave is above to the left; Once In A Blue Moon is the dihedral above to the right.
View down upper P2 near the black water stains.
P1 gully (after the initial 5th class) just below large clump of trees (shared with Standard S Route & Route 6).
