A brief respite of warmth on an otherwise cold and blustery day. Enjoying a break on the big ledge - top of Pitch 1.

OC looking glorious in the spring

Extricated from below the cave. If this is yours and you want it back let me know. I'm sure the scratches will buff right out.

The beginning of the second pitch

Looks pretty 'ill' like this. Sorry, couldn't resist...

Coming up pitch 3

Getting ready for the next pitch off of the large shelf. The start is a little tricky.

Starting the first pitch. Move around to the North side after the crack finishes, and you'll maintain the 5.6 rating of the first pitch.

From this angle, you can see the exposed, north-side variation for the final pitch.

Park where photo is taken, Walk up and first pitch is right around the base of the rock on the right of the road.

As of Aug. 8, 2018, this is the tat anchor situation on the top of the first pitch. If you've been one to rely on the tat anchors in the past, they've been fluidly available as of late, bring extra cord just in case you're left anchorless.
