Here is the SchoolRoom location in relation to everything else in LCC. This picture was taken from the super slab area.

View of the chimney / offwidth / whatever you wanna call it

Last pitch

If you want to walk off, this is the tree and blocky terrain than plants you near the base of 'after the fall'.

School Room traverse - 4th pitch (after heinous chimney)

Gear beta for pitch 2 anchor. Mostly finger size pieces. I used .5 C4, #2 Metolius, and #6 Metolius.

Traverse on pitch four above the offwidth.

Traversing pitch 4

Pro on traverse (E->W): #6 WC Offset nut set in small left facing crack, single sling on rock spur, ULMC #3 & WC 0.5.

Near the top of the 3rd pitch of Schoolroom. Nice clean finger crack!

Comfy over there

Looking up the last pitch of schoolroom

Make sure you take plenty of water during the summer.

3rd pitch...

Looking down pitch 3 of schoolroom

Brian looking up at the 5th pitch.

As my partner would say, we are airplane high.

Looking up P4 of Schoolroom

Looking down the top of the second pitch. I think this is the best pitch on the route especially if you link it with the schoolroom direct start.

Top of hand crack (looking down) from a great belay to end "first" pitch. Beware of overcamming your #3s (somebody lost one in the top of the crack and my wife didn't want to dig for it) and extend your placements to avoid drag.

This chimney was the trickiest part of the climb

Just above the chimney (seen on the right partially hidden by the bush) on the 4th pitch as I begin the traverse under the roof.

That's one way to do it...
