Josh on some cool moves at the end of the first pitch.

Just starting pitch 1

Leading the first pitch. The man to the left is a soloist dealing with snarled rap lines.

Mediocre photo of "Great Red Book"

First steep bit on GRB!

My very first multi-pitch

The final easy moves to the summit.

Crack right before anchors! Mucho fun

The Great Red Book. What a route! 02-14-2007

Crushing The Book

Beta photo of the Great Red Book. Great climb. Climber #1 is at the belay station after pitch 1.

1st pitch belay, ode to rg

protection opportunities

the "easiest" way up is to step left onto the face right about Here

Great Red Book

Anchor station at the 2nd pitch..

Partner at first pitch anchors, first two placements visible.

Letti following up first pitch, where you step out on to the face. A pink tricam in a pocket protects it a little bit better ...

Jay on the second pitch of the GRB. Fun climb.

Leading the Book

Crux of the route the half roof.

The top.

Just over halfway through first pitch, approaching body sized alcove - getting out of it was the crux move for me (first multi-pitch woohoo).. I've seen other commenters going left and climbing the face.. I think that's probably easier than the crack.

Karen and I after completing the Great Red Book. We found this great spot for a photo on the descent through the boulder field.

Such a great climb!

Part of the approach, or at least the approach we took.

Epic climb/view

Me at the start.
