High traverse.
Midway on the J.

Traversing right on the slab.

Tori left the belay ledge (at the top of P3) and traversed climber's right to gain the crack for P4. Lake Estes is in the background.

Belayer on the ledge at the top of P1. Climber is letting go of the right-facing flake (where she plugged-in one last piece), and will traverse left to gain the bottom of the backwards J.
