BOMBER. Anchors for P2.

Tyler Anderson venturing out on the second pitch....

Nearing the end of first pitch.

David on the traverse of P2

Me leading the 3rd pitch just off the 2nd belay. There is a good ledge with two decent pockets to clip the bolt from before pulling the bulge on the "hollow brown sugar hold".

Look for me. I'm rapping the last pitch

Paul Kejla at the top of our second pitch. Ian is visible below, at the top of pitch one.

At the crux of the P1

Look for David for the scale of this tower

From White Rim looking at the route

A look down into the gully with the fixed rope. It is a 20 foot downclimb, then a 20 foot rappel off two bolts. If you are in a gully that is higher/nastier than this, keep looking.

Summit and so happy

In the middle of this photo is the semi-big cairn marking the descent gully with the fixed rope , with the top of SR at the far left. The gully is CLOSE to the edge of the rim where you can see SR.

Mark leading.

A look up the beginning of the 3rd pitch. The old star bolt is on the left, with a new bomber bolt just to its right. This bulge is quite steep, and the crux hollow hold is that thin crack to the left of the bolts.

The route from the bottom

P1 - up the dihedral, exit right.

Stepping away from the belay on pitch 2. Very interesting and sustained.
