Topping out!
Eichorn Direct first half.
almost at the top of p4
10b crux right off the belay, start of p3
View from the approach. I found the ST and other shots a little hard to identify on the approach, so here you go. Climb the obvious wide crack to the right of center. The direct route goes up the left side of the arete after P1.

Eichorn West Pillar Direct starts just right of the shadow line for the first pitch and then climbs just to the left of the shadows for the rest.
Summit vibes
Pitch 2, fun and engaging cracks for the grade.
Start of pitch 3, the crux of the route. Hero lieback up steep positive hands with tricky feet! Marissa Aguirre making easy work of it here.
Pitch 1, Marissa at the 2nd wide section.
The "5.8 rib wrestling" variation as seen from the 5.4 route up.
