A view of me leading the 3rd pitch, with the thin flakes below. The rope makes it look like I am doing a traverse because I didn't want my belayer beneath me for the start (though I didn't think the flakes were super dangerous, and they do indeed become more solid further up). Also, I enjoyed the crux on this pitch as much as the 5.9 pitch above.
