Finishing the first pitch. Note the anchor up high in the crack, rather than the flake.

Reaching on Bear's Reach.
The whole shebang.
Shot upwards from the P1 anchor. Don't be put off by comments that say the belays/gear are trash - they're not. This guy takes two beautiful #1 camalots and a #3 all behind solid rock, just above the large hollow flake.

The runout section on the first pitch...
Thin rock at p1 anchor. taken from p1 of east crack. Was surprised how thin it was, and you can see all the way through
Bear's Reach. I've only climbed it once, so let me know if I made any mistakes. You can see the two belays with two people on each. Fun route, but super crowded on a summer weekend.
Unknown climbers on Bear's Reach on July 5, 2015. If you recognize yourself in the photo, I'm glad you found it! EDIT ON 05-22-21: Looking at this photo again I'm quite certain it is The Line 5.9.
