My brother leading the sick line up p3. It may appear that his pieces are inches apart, but he is probably 30-40 ft off the belay here.

Shame about all the bolts. Protecting it naturally is easy and fun and adds nothing to the difficulty or commitment.

Hard to imagine a better corner!

Pitch 5 bolted anchor (Sept 2015). This one needs a new sling/ring. The bolts are kind of old too.

Don't skip P5! Very enjoyable in a different style from the other pitches and I found plenty of good pro.
