A route overlay of Lost in Space.

If you wanna stay on route above the first pitch, here's the first moves to what worked for us - just head right to the arete from here.

Darin Lang at the end of the third pitch of Lost in Space.

Adam Kimmerly following pitch 1, sans trees :-(

the route we took up the sheeps nose as best as I can make it out.

Big loose boulder with the 2nd rap anchors. Scary!

Good view of Lost in Space.

Tiny little boulders....

Top of our third pitch.

Sheep's Nose.

No cheap thrills here on the .9X start. Just slabby, scary goodness.

Pitch 2 as seen from the belay. This seemed like a good place to have a belay for leader visibility and rope management.

Garrett following the slab crux on P1. Not much to work with here other than friction. Spread your legs and trust the rubber!
