Unknown climber cruxin on Leav. Taken from P5 of Eagle Dance.

An old bolt with "JU" etched on it, presumably for Jorge and/or Joanne Urioste. This was at the top of either the second or third pitch. Don't worry, there were new, shiny, bolts nearby, too.

Greeted by an incredible sunrise on the approach slabs of Levitation 29!

What a beautiful first pitch! I see why it's classic.

Alex, p1

Craig headed off on a brisk November morning

an 80m will take you from the top of 7 to the top of 5 and set up a sweet shot of friends cruising the crux pitch... but its close enough where I wouldn't recommend it
