A climber moves out under the roof on the second pitch of Diagonal.
Russ Owen solo on the second pitch.
Hanging out at the end of the undercling. Same position as previous photo, but zoomed in.
Jason Rite on the first pitch of Diagonal.
On the jugs at the end of the undercling on P2.
All done. Jugs and a good stance. Use long slings on the piece under the roof, and rope drag is minimal as you climb the easy upper slabs.
Luke's right foot is on a good 1" ledge. Pull onto this, and you're done.
Starting the roof sequence. Step up a move or two, place a cam and undercling and jam right.
Getting gear at the last stance before the roof.
In the middle of the traverser right. Although easy, the traverse feels very airy, and you don't know what you're getting into.
Nice lighting, not much action on P1.<br> Photo by Luke Clarke.
