At the stance below the crux. There is a bit of a move up the arete to get to where Luke is standing.

Starting the crux standup move. The crack is too thin for fingers (at least for our fingers), so we used head and shoulder scums to keep from tipping out.
The initial cracks of Lithophyte. These are harder than they look--awkward and a bit grungy.

Just above the crux move. Above this the angle eases off, and the climbing is at most 5.8.
