Beware of the fat bastard at the base who will unabashedly steal your food.

Critical big wall gear to keep your nuts separated from the pecker.

Last pitch possibly, half dome in the bathroom

Looking down pitch 5 at the reachy bolt ladder. That's one blank steep face!

Richard happy to be into a bolt. That is his happy face.

Looking up Pitch 1 of the Prow. JP on lead.

Looking up pitch 5. The reachy bolt ladder starts just after the crack peters out on the blank face.

On the decent. The prow is the wall in the background.

P2. Don't move right on this pitch, go left to the anchors under the roof.

Tapir Terrace, looking at the rest of the route. BTW I went right to some old bivy anchors. So we had to shuttle our bags over left to get back under the route.

This is about the last aid move on the route followed by some 5.6-5.7 scrambling to the summit.

Sunset on the summit. Just enough light left to get down the NDG following an in a day ascent.

The Prow, seen from the North Dome Gully descent trail.

feeling cozy between these proud faces high on the Prow

When it started raining we got the ledge up in record time.

I was in a waterfall while belaying this pitch in the rain.
