Nearing the first belay. Notice the entire route is visible from this vantage point.

Good Exposure right off the deck... 2nd placement
Looking up at the second pitch from the hanging belay. It’s a little bit further to the start of the diagonal crack then the picture suggests, maybe 8ft over the chains.
I had a full set of hexes, nuts and 4 BD Camalots (.5,1,2,3). The crack on the second pitch is pretty gunked up with dirt and debris, so some of the passive pro placements seemed a bit sketchy at times. Bring a brush so you can clean out the cracks on the second pitch a bit.
The diagonal crack that starts pitch 2 abruptly angles upwards and widens for the last 60ft.
