a view of the 2nd pitch OW/chimney crack. Its #6 camalot for most of it, and not vertical at all.

Following up P4. Chad is at the anchors. The first section with tricky pro has a mysterious single bolt on the right to clip. Climbing it was very easy since the angle was very flat.
Chad leading P4, which was a fantastic hand crack! Until the very end it took great pro and jams.
Chad just beyond the short P4 flare/groove crux and almost to the chains. I found this pitch to be much easier and better protected than the Trough pitch of the Standard Thumb route.
Beginning the P3 crack. It is a tad flaring and gritty at first, but quite moderate.
Looking down after aiding the P3 crack.
