Counterbalance rappel. Both climbers rappelling at once, with the double ropes draped over the apex of the arch. Super fun!

Looking along the ridge. There is a pretty good belay spot just below the summit block. Awesome exposure!
Pitch 1.

Loose flake
The airy bouldery move at the start of Pitch 2.
There was a sling around a block where the arch started. So others have climbed this way already, no surprise. I reinforced it with my own for the belay.
