Petite from the North. This is taken from the top of the 5.3 chimney you climb to approach the Gash after rapping off the summit.
We started climbing at 230am. The sun caught up with us 4 pitches in, and it was magical.

We took the double rope rappel off. Photographer Glenn Randal took this shot and sent it to me after we recovered a dropped cam for his party ahead of us.

NICE.
Evidence of just how good that dihedral pitch is! Jared smiling wide.
Exposed pitch 5 or 6.
5.7 finger crack !(#? on pitch 7.
Classic exposure in a wild environment.
