Here's a good ground view of the route you will be looking for. Rap down with two 60m ropes or you are going to leave gear.

Detail of climber making the crux moves near the end of the first pitch. Look for this identifying feature you can see from the ground. Belay just above this roof/alcove.
Looking down from a belay above the first crux. Optionally, you can belay where scott's standing, as per the guidebooks.

If you belay here, on the flat ledge above the alcove with a roof, then the second and final pitch can take you all the way to the top. Above this spot there are no comfortable belay ledges.
the base of osprey. an easy scramble to a ledge just below the first pitch crux
This is the view from the belay ledge looking up at the second and final pitch of Osprey. You can see that it's steep and sustained with many small roofs.
Scott coming down after climbing Osprey. For the most part the route follows a line 5-10 feet right of the rappel ropes.
A pretty good look at the second pitch route
The guy wearing black.....directly right behind him in this picture is the 4th class upclimb that leads to Osprey.
In this photo: pitch 1 of Osprey. Climber is negotiating the first indent/roof (crux). Set your first belay on the ledge above this spot.
Standing on the big second pitch belay ledge, right above first pitch crux. There's another shadier spot a bit higher if you don't want to stand in the sun.
looking down from just below the first pitch crux roof.
The rather smelly hawk's chill out spot you have to climb through. Although it wasn't too smelly in 2022.
Halfway up the second pitch, looking down at second pitch belay station.
Pulling the final roof below the bolts, juggy holds and a small tree but otherwise not bad.
