The upper part of the upper crack. It is all #0.5 & thinner from here on out for cam placements and jams! Have fun.

The finger crack to start off the route. Don't believe the Bjornstad guidebook illustrating you climbing the crescent flakes on the left to ultimately intersect the corner above. That is a pile of lies.

Can you tell I was scared? The rock crushed and popped some of the lobes when I tested cams, so I had to reposition them and set them deeper. Needless to say, I gave up free climbing and French freed the final 6 ft.
Looking into the awkward AF OW/LB. It expands abruptly inside, with a lot wrong going for it.
Starting into the upper crack. It only gets thinner and sandier from here.
The view up from the bail ledge. Choose to go to the easy anchor on your right to make it a 5.8 climb, or continue up for glory.
