I decided at this point to do it as one pitch, I recommend it.

Looking through the "roof" slot.

Jams and friction.

I really liked the moves through the roof.

I think this was the crux. Eric placing gear.

Leading it!

Looking down Edward's Crack from the top. As can be seen, the middle belay ledge is large enough to hold at least three climbers.

Pulling over....

Walking up the crack

The start on a cold Oct.07' morning (8am)

When your cams walk into the crack too deep to reach, the "Leeper Friend of a Friend" works great!

Coming up to the first belay, right before the tagline came off my harness, still not sure how it happened, but it made the rap down pretty interesting.

Lead away!
