The second half of pitch 4 (crux pitch). The gear is a bit tricky here.
It's getting harder here and the end has some surprises. I won't spoil for you, but it does not quite end as I expected. Your partners have a nice big comfy ledge to watch you work the crux and take pictures. (Photo by John Courtney)

Crux seems straightforward enough, a lieback. (Photo by John Courtney)
First pitch has exciting stemming and jamming at 5.9. It didn't feel this overhanging. Camera angle may be adding to the drama a bit here. (Photo by John Courtney)
