Traversing on Dirty Pinkos

Falling slackliners add some spice to P3's well-bolted traverse.

We started from Super Slab, took the 5.7 sport route to the right, then ended up at Commie Pinkos. Another 7 or 8 after Commie Pinkos we topped out and hiked down Misery Ridge.

We decided to pack all our gear in one bag to swap on pitches then head to climb at Mesa Verde wall from there making a nice loop over Asterisk pass. Heavy bag for that final roof but worth it for the loop day.

Looking back across the third pitch traverse from the anchors.

Climbing with the whole gang during summer of the dark times. Note our buddy at then end of the simul-train on a zoom happy hour, and pinky about to start the traverse. Good fun for the whole family on this one!

The alternative final pitch (pitch 4 of Gulag) would recommend
