The top of pitch 1.
Crista on the crux traverse.
Near the bottom by the dead tree.
The hands-free rest before starting out on the leftward traverse. This is highly recommended to refresh your arms before the climbing to the anchors.
Peanuts pitch 1 before the roof.
Setting up for the traverse.
Adam entering the crux. Just keep moving left, don't worry about placing gear until you're in the clear. Just keep moving left!
Adam just before the crux!
Heading for the anchors.
On the crux traverse....
Chuck starting the finger traverse (not quite a hand traverse). The horizontal crack is totally invisible from the base of the crag, and that is why I hesitated to do this difficult-looking climb (not that it's easy!).
Chuck in the headlock. There's a hard sequence getting to this point. The crux traverse is straight left from Chuck's hidden head.
