The ramp on the backside of P2 that you scramble down to a narrow spire to begin the short and super sketchy 3rd pitch.

First pitch
Looking down at the narrow and exposed P3 belay. You can build a ground anchor here to protect the belayer if the leader happens to fall into the void while traversing across the 3rd pitch.
The super short 3rd pitch. Only purpose is to move belay from narrow spire up to the big ledge. Step across gap pull up a few moves then begin the traverse out left on good feet towards much easier climbing.
The beautiful clean crack of Pitch 2
Pitch 2-Sweet!!
The 4th and final pitch. 2 variations exist, but most people follow the right corner up through varied features. Harder to protect, but easier to navigate.
