Stemming past the last and worst old pin. This pin has an old piece of perlon on it with no sheath left. Luke clipped the perlon figuring it was as good as the pin, and that, if Luke fell, he'd do a public service by either ripping the perlon off or ripping out the pin.

Mickey Mouse Nailup. Four or five fixed pins are on the route. The lower crux works up to a shelf below the first pin, and the upper crux works past a bulging flake by the last pin.
In the middle of the first crux. There is a good 0.75 Camalot above Luke's waist. Standing up from here is precarious.

Enjoying the rests on this great pitch.

Irina Overeem in the exit chimney. Irina's last pro is at foot level. The exit moves are 5.6 to 5.7 with good holds.
Irina Overeem approaching the upper crux. Irina has clipped an old pin deep in the crack to her left, and now must work right, place a #3 Camalot and clip another old pin, and climb the bulging flake to the alcove above.
Irina Overeem at the lower crux. A good wired nut is at knee level. The crux isn't over until Irina is standing on the shelf left of her hands.
