Coop bringing up the RC glider we threw from the top. What an awsome flight! Even landed it at the car.

View from the start of the third pitch, just before it gets crack-tastic!

Nabbing the jug to finish the slab crux of P4. January 2013.

As noted: the money crack. Serious fun!

A shot of the pitch 2 traverse, Mars Attacks.

Mr. Myers crusez the last pitch!

Looking down the start of splitter pitch 3!!

This is the easy way to get there. Otherwise hike straight up the slabs and have fun with a sketchy bouldery move up the slabs.

what an amazing place to be

1st pitch slab

One of the first views of the route from the dirt road (FSR 152). We walked the road since it was a bit rough. 50 minutes from car to base of route.

Top of final pitch.

Jodie on the traverse pitch 2. She flew through this amazingly exposed pitch.

dana leading and getting a bit gripped on pitch 2.

Looking down at Natalie coming up the first pitch.

Coming around the traverse on pitch 2. Loved every second!

Taking a break, enjoying the view atop the 3rd pitch

The traverse is so good! One of the best pitches of its grade I have ever climbed!

This block atop pitch 3 is disconnected. Tred lightly.

Ryan Myers giggling his way up pitch 3!!!

Pointing at the formation where Mars Attacks is located. Seen from the Devil's Bridge trail

The 3rd pitch crack was my favorite part.

As seen from the parking area (described in Weekend Rock: Arizona).

The climbers trail turnoff up a wash, about 0.15 mile past the Devil's Bridge trail turnoff. Look for a cairn.

Approach to Mars Attacks & Big Corner from Dirt Road (152C).

The crux section on Pitch 1.

Another shot of Jodie on the traverse pitch 2.

Following P1

Me going up the crack on pitch three. Fun pitch for my intro to crack climbing.
