Inspired climbing!

Don't climb this! The crack that appears to provide a logical fifth pitch is loose, miserable, and thoroughly unenjoyable.

Mystery bolt: at the top of the third pitch, we found bail slings on this nicely placed old bolt.

Even following did not feel overly secure, with the huge undercut corner dropping away below.
