Looking up at the first pitch, some gear available to keep your belayer steady. Use long slings to link without misery. Note this is from the higher band of rock above Broadway, use caution starting the route, this is an accident prone area.

Halfway up the offwidth-y pitch. Henry waving to the camera!

Unknown climber near the top of 2nd pitch after combining 1st two pitches. Photo taken at 10:19 AM from the top of the Chasm Wall Thursday, Sept. 18th, 2014. I had hiked up from the Boulder Field to watch the climbers and take in the view.

Climber on Pervertical Sanctuary, taken from Black Dagger on 8/10/09. I believe one of these climbers was named "Buster".

Michael enjoying the view.

Crux pitch of Pervertical Sanctuary, August 2013.

The crux pitch of Pevertival Sanctuary. Steep!

Pitch 6. The guidebook shows that you can climb the crack system on the left or right, both at 5.9. I went up the one on the left.

Kishen Mangat on the crux. Circa 1996.

Looking down at the first loose pitch from the start of the mitten dihedral. Note that the belayer is on the ramp above Broadway.

The stance on the perched block at the top of pitch 4.

Paul Glover, most-ways up the wide crack.

Pitch 5. We had 2 #3 and 2 #4, which seemed sufficient with some walking of the bigger pieces and back-cleaning whenever you could get in a smaller cam.

Look at the butt on that guy.

A few climbers up above and right, as seen on a bluebird morning on Pervertical Sanctuary (5.10, IV) on the Diamond Face of Longs Peak. Even there, you are never alone. Photo by Tony Bubb, Aug 2001.

Some nice exposure.
