The final 20ft of slab before the summit. There are many large protrusion on the slab that make it easier than it looks. Definitely the most exposed part of route. There is also a hand crack just to the left of this photo that is climbable but harder.

Downclimbing what felt like the crux of the route
At the base of the last 80ft of climbing. The final 20ft of slab is at the top of this gully.

This is the start of the route after you hike up the col and around to the north side of the tower. There is a bomber hand crack on the left to start you up the gully.
