Sosa - The top-out after leading the whole route. Best Views of Sedona are on top of the spires.

just after the crux of Pitch 1 (5.8+.. but stout for the grade) Fun Climb!

Awesome Summit

Me looking forward to a great adventure on Dr. Rubo's. I was lucky enough to have Scott Baxter loan me his hand jammies so I could lead the 2nd pitch solidly.

Right after the traverse on pitch 3. Some really good no-hands foot matches on this part :)

Rappel chains. Looks like a loose hanger and two pitons. Not sure why the bolts were chopped?

Braxton climbing P1, fortunately we had a full moon, unfortunately no #2 camalots

yep

Starting off Pitch 3.

A few pounded pitons protect the start of Pitch 3. I wouldn't want to fall on them, but they give mental support.

Rap anchor at the north end of the summit.

Rappelling into the notch. Two rappels with a single 60.

Belay bolts on the top of the second pitch. Kind of a weird positioning for the belayer.

Mantel move on pitch 4, as someone who's 4.11, I could *maybe* reach the bolt on tippy-toes if leading but not easily. Chalked mark on climbers left was my partners first hold
