Another pic from the first ascent. Climbing past that damn bush made the second pitch a little harder and sketchier. Now you can get a piece of pro that was not possible before.

This is a pic of Pat leading above the big bro anchor into the 4th pitch on the first ascent. I got to the ledge at the end of the flare pitch and yelled down to him not to weight the anchor as I stared at the bros wedged into the crack. The new bolt anchors are f'ing awesome!
