We were hit by some thunderstorms as we topped out...the end result was this. This is also the reason for the route name.

Looking down from P6 belay with anchor locations marked.
Me following Brent Butler on the amazing dihedral pitch.
The rappels for Rainbow Highway are on a large boulder about 10' back from the cliff proper on the right side of the Black Wall. This is also the last belay station for the route.
Pitch 4.
Splitter cracks on pitch #3.
The upper pitches of the Rainbow Highway are in Blue. The Emerald Highway is Red.
