Marioulumne + Drug Dome Base 1/ Valinor Topo
Valinor Overlay, route is red dotted line

Nearing the top of pitch three of Valinor. The other climber is on the R pitch of Hobbit Book. Epic Location! Use caution on the last pitch of any route on Marioulumne Dome, due to the poorer rock quality. Long live Tuolumne, long live Tolkien :)
Natalie stepping left into the shallow crack after surmounting the small roof on pitch 3.
Start of P4 with an interesting move (crimpy) off the anchors to gain the crack
Looking up at the P3 thin crack (I thought this was the technical crux on-route)

Pitch 3 is fantastic
Approach to Valinor. Keep in the gully heading towards the tower until you are approximately underneath Hobbit Book.
Starting up P1
As the comment pointed out, I mistook the bolt (on the face on the left, not shown) as the anchor bolt for P2. Luckily I had a wild country .1 friend that fit here and allowed me to build an anchor. So if you get to this point, keep going a bit further.
