No Alternative 1st pitch goes up the flake in the middle
ID 105953509 · · Copyright Violation?
No Alternative. Climbers at the top of pitch one, two and three. Beautiful fall day in October 2011.
Me at the top of the first pitch by the tree mid route. One bolt and two sets of anchors send you to the top!! A couple good horizontal cracks fit a C3 #1 & C4 #2 if you prefer protect the runouts on pitch's 2 and 3.
