Looking left from the 4th/5th pitch with another party off in the distance - not sure what they were on. From here, route finding became pretty difficult. There were so many ways or directions you could go.

Looking up pitch 7. The black rock in the upper left corner is the far right side of the roof on the normal Love route. From the belay, we headed right up a ramp, then up, then back left.
The traverse at the end of pitch 6. Lake Hiyahaha, or however it's spelled, in the background.
Looking down pitch 6 (in description). The grassy ledge below is a good belay spot also (bottom of left-facing dihedral).
Pitch 2, the fun dihedral.
Looking down pitch 1.
