Easter 2013- Frogs low, bunnies high. Serious fun.

Obi follows up what we made the first pitch. The recommended pitch is to use the trees to the right of him, however starting from the white column with a 60m rope you can make it to another nice belay ledge higher up that takes nice 2 and 0.75 cams.

P4 just after the crux traverse

I got to lead the fun, squeezy pitch. Thank you awesome party ahead for snapping some photos!

Such a cool tunnel through!!!

Looking down through the chockstone on Frogland, this pitch is a lot of fun, and you once past it, you can use the chockstone as natural pro!

John on the traverse pitch. 'X' marks the bolt before moving to the traverse (feet low, hands across the dotted line). Small pro to be found in the vertical crack to the left of the traverse.

The belay shown lines up with the 5.7 variation to P3, the classic line is the corner to the left of the shown belay.

4th Pitch

Watch out for a couple of loose holds near the top of Frogland Pitch 4.

Descent gully. Follow the cairnes to the left of the gully to avoid large patches of brush. Fairly straightforward

Pitch one of Frogland starts on the white flake and continues up the corner to the trees.

At the start of Pitch 5, pretty damn thin and tricky to get to that first bolt!

Taking a look before heading up the arete. This pitch and the one following (chokstone pitch) were my two favorite pitches of the climb!
