pitch 19, 3-stars!!!! rope is on the rappel line. the route stays in the corner on the left, up to the roof, then makes an airy traverse (that's not bad, IF u find the beta...

middle pitches (pre-cleaning). dots are tops of pitches 7-11. Pitch 11 actually goes up the corner to the right of the dot. (this image was done early, before 11 was actually in place. and before much cleaning was done)

the crux, and money pitch, 15 (5.12c). perfect, vertical dihedral!! pockety rock on the right. polished on the left. bolt-laddered for the mere mortals amongst us

pitches 16 and 17

in case you and your partner try descending in the dark during a rainstorm(as we did). here is some beta to avoid the epic.

Pitch 26. bc of foreshortening, the photo doesnt do this pitch justice. after the first few meters (which is most of the photo) its actually really good rock. goes up a double-crack, traverse to a corner, then past a 'window' in the rock.

Current state of the P6 bags/blankets…
