Last pitch of Icarus / Yellow Spur.

The "alternate" first belay.

Chase about to start the last (shared) pitch of Yellow Spur.

A cool shot of Ivan from the extended belay station. Pretty neat!

Kirra and I on Icarus. I forget the name of the photographer that made this nice montage.

Deb at the top of P3 on Icarus.

The view from halfway up Icarus. Pretty sweet!

An unknown climber starting up Icarus. This and the next 2 photos taken from Green Slab Direct. I think.

Unknown climber traversing out to the arete.

Unknown climber on the arete. This climber stayed here for what seemed like forever, climbing up and down, trying to get in gear, before downclimbing all the way to the Red Ledge. Perhaps he traversed right too low?

Heading up pitch 2 of Icarus, climbers on Rewritten can be seen in the crack on the far side wall.

Jim Illg on final pitch of Icarus.

Almost at the top.

Can't beat the position.

John psyched to start the final arete.

Steep (but lots of holds).
