Lowering off after a "rafting ascent" which consists of<br> Flip flops, swimsuit, nrs straps for daisy chains, and slings for harness.

If you feel like aid soloing, or would like to make an anchor, here's what you get!

Bring the beers and some cards, the summit is a nice place to spend Thanksgiving morning.
The engineering (crux) for this route: hammer, 2 nuts, and a whole lot of duct tape. I added a rip cord tied into a mule hitch to close the carabiner gate after clipping.
Reaching bolt #2.
Thanks for the beer K!!! Glad we got there before it got skunked! We came off the river on 4/14, drove by and saw you up there too.
