The red line shows the route in three pitches with belays as black circles. Note that the first pitch is just to get to the base of the crack, making the entire route over 200 ft. While some evidently solo up the first section, it makes good sense to protect, as a fall would be very unfortunate.

Boulder at base of starting crack of phantom. Boulder can be accessed via a jagged crack system on its left side then starting up wide crack to top. Easy climbing and protectable.
Shot of pitch 2 of the Phantom
One more of the finger crack section. If only it was longer....
Kyle on the easy upper arete that leads to the chains
The old ring piton at the top of the finger crack before a few faces moves to the ledge.
View of the 2nd pitch (first in the route description) from the belay ledge. Short, but sweet.
A view down the last pitch from the top anchors
Cory leading the last pitch as he reaches the exposed arete.
