I'm usually happy while climbing this pitch also. Not because the climb is almost over, but because it's super fun! Aug 11, 2011

I can second Robin's comment. I liked it so much, that while cleaning for Robin on this pitch that I left his #3 C4 in the crack and made him lower me so I could go climb it again...I mean go get his cam. May 14, 2015

Tamara leading the 5.9 crack on p4. The 5.9 variation heads straight up from the belay. The 5.10 variation can be seen on left edge of the photo.

An attempt at marking the route Second Coming. 1st pitch - mostly not shown; 2nd pitch - one variation shown and top belay can be rope-length dependent; 3rd pitch - rough approximation; 4th pitch - take your pick!
Wes near the final bit of the approach - death talus is fairly easy to maneuver!
Chuck checking out the original p3. The recommended third pitch heads straight up from the belay, as opposed to heading to the obvious dihedral to the right of the belay.

Fun on pitch 3!
