Wedged in the chimney about to place some pro. I probably over protected the chimney because I though I was moving a lot farther than I actually was.

Day's Work on a beautiful day
Getting into the thick of it right off the deck. You can maintain a hand jam for most of the chimney, but it puts you in awkward positions either feeling like you're stuck or your feet will blow. With a little work you can probably master the start, but for me I worked about as hard getting up this chimney as I did hiking in with all my trad gear.

I managed to fight through the chimney and am about to pull the roof. I found the holds at the roof to be quite nice, but then again I'm more of a sport climber and crack grades seem 2 full grades harder to me.
