Scott set up this intermediate belay on the last pitch of Fine Jade because rope drag was going to be a pain in the butt. It was well worth it just for the position.

Pitch 1 OW

Ham or cheese? 5.7 traverse is fun. If you belay at the level of the traverse, a #4 Camalot is best for a safe belay before you traverse.

Past the OW, P1.

Some great exposure on pitch 3! Also note the bolt above the 0.5 placement, as it is arguably more bomber.

3 climbers on Fine Jade...can you spot them?

YARRRRR

Just past the steep crux on pitch 1

Stunning view on our approach to Fine Jade 4/29/2021. The climb lived up to the hype.

The classic approach shot of the mega-classic climb. This thing is worth the hype.

The last pitch...sweet.

Erik Warmenhoven just before breaking a hold at the 3rd belay. Could have clipped the bolt to avoid the swing...

You better hope these guys flying the lawn mower engine machines aren't above your head while you're climbing. They are extremely annoying.

Getting past the OW

Top of the tower. Very windy day, lost the green rope on the repel...

Rich on Fine Jade. This is the short section of loose climbing before the summit headwall.

Rich on the first pitch of Fine Jade. This section is steeper than it looks.

David pauses to scope out the upcoming crux on pitch 2.

Belay off left ~80ft-up on P1 to be in position for this ridiculous hero shot.

Looking up Pitch 1

The third pitch. Easier climbing but marginal rock and protection keep it exciting.

A climber plugging and chugging up the first pitch of Fine Jade when I was on my way back down!
