Anchor locations are approximate. Pitch 2 is really long, more than 16 draws. bring 20.

Heading up the second pitch with our boys, 4 and 7 at the time, climbing as a party of 4 on doubles.

Looking up the crux (5.8) Pitch 4 of Sinocranium.

Pitch 4 of Sinocranium goes up the steep section. It is the crux (5.8) of the route.

Should you see these crazies climbing, run the other way!!

Steinfells Dome from parking area; Sinocranium is on the right hand side of the big dome.

Looking down from the top of the crux (5.8) Pitch 4 of Sinocranium. We belayed right below it, although there is also a set of anchors about 50 feet before the belayer in the photo.

Looking down Pitch 2 of Sinocranium. The climbing on this route is similar to Theatre of Shadows, but seems a bit harder and the bolts just a tad more spread out (although still comfortingly plentiful).

Setting up the Rappel. I took this picture of my friend while I was standing on the very top of the summit. Walking down to this rap station is very easy. The second set of chains are on the right side of the gully as you face the wall.

Dalon and Sheri successful at the summit!

The 5.8+ pitch

Belay stance on top of the hard pitch. Wake up early to avoid the crowds on this route!

Start of Sinocranium-NOTE: Large cairn.

The rest of the bunch coming up pitch 3 on Sinocranium!

At the top - 7th pitch is a doozy, no bolts, just walk up

A historic shot! Has to be 2010- top of Sinocranium! First trip to the City with Jorden :)

Enjoying the fun crux pitch.

Combined 4th and 5th pitches.

Looking up from the base of Sinocranium. The first bolt is 20 feet off the ground so it is easy to miss the base of the route and go too far uphill.

A double rope rappel.
