Erica Engle at the end of the traverse of the "Ominous" Roof pitch - Pitch 5 in Ian's guidebook. Erica has chosen to climb it as a handrail. You can also walk the ledge she has her hands on. The harder part of this pitch is actually right above Erica - pulling into a layback on a slopey flake. Good pro.
Exiting the belay chimney to the traverse and crux lieback
Your "summit" ledge. Descent is to the gully on the left, not the farther right one. We used a short handrail off the tree to get into it.
Looking up pitch 1 of the route. Just above the climber is where you traverse left onto the difficult to protect section.
Erica Engle getting ready to step right onto a hidden (from belayer's sight) ledge that traverses right. This ledge can be climb as a handrail, or walked along like a Thank God Ledge, or both - making a transition from one climbing style to the other mid way through the traverse.

Looking down at the 2x4 in the offwidth.
Using the bivy ledge/tower as your visual guide, cross over this short ridge and you'll find a nice gully waiting for you (climbers right of the bivy spot).
