If you're tall or flexible enough, this wide stem takes a load off you hands.

At the stance above the ceiling. The foreshortening makes the gear took closer together than it really is. Or maybe not. Photo by Luke Clarke.

Very casually checking out the move around the roof.

Get the jugs, then swing around left to a rest. This is 10 something.

Sara Born super psyched.

There's a decent rest if you step down. I missed this the first couple of times I tried this route, and tried to rest just above using the undercling, in a very precarious position.

Entering into the crux on Center Route.

The crux is getting from the rest to here. Above this it's pumpy mid-10.
