Piton anchors at top of second pitch.

View from the summit - 13,113 ft.

As seen from near the base of the standard route.

The shot was taking on our approach. The normal approach trail is to our left and follows the left skyline to the base of Lizard Head. <br>

The peaks seen in the background are the Wilson Group.

Zach comming up the last pitch.

Paul rocks choss, P3.

An alternative pitch 2 that skips the worst of the talus, maybe 5.2. Also, with a single 70m, you can rap off the summit to this spot and down lead to P1 rap anchor.

Lizard Head from treeline. Approach was mostly dry on 6/22 after a huge snow year.
