The start of the hand traverse on pitch 4. There are two good rests along the way. <br> <br> Double ropes which I haven't used in many years and a tied off rigid Friend.

Showing more clearly the runout traverse right and the hand traverse back left. The top pitch of Hot Licks is the wide 8+ crack above the tall dead tree.

Photo by Paul Rezucha. This is the variation #3 I describe in my 5/2/04 post.
The inspiration.
The start of pitch 5.
Pitch 3. Nate is just past the spicy 5.9 face section.
The start of pitch 2.
Pitch 1 under the roof. Intimidating for sure but great climbing and good gear.
Gettin' psyched looking up at the roof in pitch 1.
