Third pitch of a Word to the Bird. This belay was moved lower on the FFA making it a bit longer and requiring the face climbing to get to the crack rather than ending the second pitch.
The anchor for the first rappel from the rim is on a vertical surface.

Crow Head Spires and Bird's View Butte
About to enter the 5.8 chimney on pitch 4 of Satellite Spire. The route takes the left OW crack seen above. The 3 lead bolts and two anchor bolts on pitch 4 are gone. You now either man up with a #6 or bring a #4 big bro. Either way you link 4 and 5 to the summit.

A little farther left. <br> What a beautiful morning!
