Fast Boat to China. The easiest start uses the crack on the right and steps left to a good ledge. Place pro in the thin crack on the left, but climb to the right. <br> <br> Near the top, you can exit left to the anchor on "Politicians, Priests and Body Bags" and lower, or layback up a hand crack on the right and belay from the top.

Ron Olsen using the same stem as Bruno Hache in the previous photo. Shorter climbers will have to find another way!
Bruno Hache stemmed wide halfway up the pitch.
Bruno Hache low on the route. He placed pro in the thin crack on the left, but is climbing to the right. <br> <br> Climbing the thin corner crack directly would up the difficulty far beyond 5.8.
Near the bottom after the difficult start.
Lower in the climb going up the left side of the route which I would definitely say was not a 5.8.
