The red line outlines the general path of the climb. The first off-width section starts just behind the line of sight at the point of the offset horizontal cracks midway up the climb. The second off-width can be seen further up past the next horizontal crack.

Looking back down the initial lieback secion
In this picture, the first off-width section can clearly be seen, with Cory belaying from the top of the second off-width, which cannot be seen here.
Cory belays from the top of the 2nd off-width after slinging a large boulder on a large shelf. Easy scrambling can be done from this point to the summit.
This view looks down to the top of the first off-width from the base of the second off-width, with the rope showing the general line.
