P3: stay to the right at the large crack, I opted to go left and onto the face, I had multiple foot holds break, but managed to hang on. I believe the correct route is staying right

Second belay on one armed bandit. Nice to have the book the first go round so you don't get lost. LOL. This is Myself and Calvin.

Standing at the base of P1 of One-Armed Bandit. The crack is quality climbing and protects well until the very top, where the angle eases off and you exit onto the ledge. Belay here. Move all the way to the right end of that ledge for the start of P2.

Yep it's a butt shot but shows how lovely this chimney is on our pitch 3 start (route description pitch 4 I think).

Chimney p 4

Not super relevant but fun to share, my partner proposed to me on the top of this climb! Olive Oil was a conga line, so we did One-Armed Bandit and made it to the summit before the Olive Oil train of parties. Good vibes on this route for sure!

Pitch 3 - pretty much the whole pitch as I was about to top out into the chimney ledge for P4

Looking down pitch 1

Ed at the beginning of the P4 chimney. Rainbow Mountain between his legs.

Here is Owen my son (15 years old) cruising our long second pitch of one-arm bandit just before reaching the chimney. This is a fantastic pitch with excellent rock.

Scott360 Belaying P1, he is so lazy! He did this the whole way up! I will let him chime in

Start of pitch 2

This is the start, climb up toward tree at top left of picture, then go right (tricky slab) to another tree and belay from tree, then move right to nice ledge to start pitch 2.

This is not the start, go past it about 50 feet... its a pain too.

Looking up at pitch 2

Pitch 1 Variation - instead of going out right from the bush you can go straight up this very technical crack in front. 5.9 PG-13. It's a sustained 40 feet of 5.9 climbing

This is what all five anchor installations look like. Two bolts on nicely swaged cables with a quicklink, and painted black. 3/22/2024
