The start of the route.

Pitch 4 traverse with the angle exaggerated in the other direction compared to the other photos. What's the real angle of this pitch? You'll just have to go and find out!

The route starts right about here.

Ann-Marie Maly about to step out over the giant roof on the 10th (final) pitch.

Approximate location of aggresive honey bee colony attack of 2 separate hiking groups on the trail that serves as descent trail for Void of Form. One hiker reported 50 stings, 3 other hikers required SAR rescue & helicopter evac of one of the hikers.

The ledge atop pitch 9 offers a great place to take a nap before completing the final short pitch and walk back to the car.

Remnants of fire retardant paint on some of the bolt hangers following the Bighorn Fire. All bolts are fine, I just thought this was mildly interesting.

The climber's trail branches off of the Pontatoc Canyon trail at 32º20'41.95" N, 110º53'31.02" W, just before the trail switches back to the West.

Enjoying some chocolate milk on the summit. Best post-climb drink. No cap.

Almost the whole route, starting from the second pitch. The route traverses left of the climber and ends on the large roof left of the summit.

Cruising up some slab!

Amazing geology on pitch 3!

It's just a glorified scramble

Pitch 3 anchor with the beginning of the P4 traverse.

Mid-way up the 2nd official pitch. I would recommend combining pitches 1 and 2 with a 70m rope.

Looking back across the easy slab traverse on the bank of the wash. Before crossing to start the final approach.

The approach to the main wall. Took us about 1.5 hours from car to the base.

Beautiful views of the dirty T

The walk off into the sunset along the Pontotoc Ridge Trail. Spectacular!

4 stars indeed on pitch 3! What a fun slabby section

Happy follower on pitch 3!
