Tree anchor we rapped off on the large ledge in the middle of P4. Used 2 70m ropes but I think one would have been fine. It's on the side of the rock facing the street. There are also chains above and below this tree.

Anchor we built in the middle of P4. This was under the final chimney. The GriGri is tied off because I had to belay the 2nd follower as he went down to help the 3rd follower remove some gear so she could get through the P4 squeeze chimney.
