A poor attempt of mine to depict the Sunset Strip (5.10d 12p) line with the variation finish via Europa chimneys we took to top out in daylight. Thanks Lee G. for the pic.

This is the 5.6 exit option up the final pitch of Europa. This avoids the last 2 pitches of Sunset Strip (10d crux, and 5.9 chimney). It's not nearly as good of climbing as the actual route, but good to know about if you need/want a quicker/easier exit.

Now the real business starts. 5.10c rattly fingers in a V-shaped box crack provide full value.

Pitch 2. 10a

Pitch 10, short 10b traverse to chimney.

Pitch 8, crux slab, face climb passing 5 bolts. 10d

Pitch 6 ?

Pitch 4/5, I think I combined two pitches. 10+/ 5.9

Joseph W. solving the p2 start problem ... full body jamming FTW

Hint, zoom in on it.

Pitch 4, just above the rattly fingers section

Working the final moves on p3

Pitch 3. You could also begin the pitch by going right into the corner. I've done both ways now and both are good climbing.
