TJ thinking through the final moves on the traverse to the chains. Yellow is Baron, blue is Stars and pink is Cloudbeams
Mt. Index appears through a gap in the clouds on a winter's morning. Defeat Baron, Stars, and Bad Reputation are in the foreground.
Soon after the Baron merges with Stars, you have this final 10' traverse to the belay anchor. (It is easier than it looks--super grippy rock, so just trust your feet.) A chain from the anchor is visible at the bottom. (Photo: J. Ranish)
Yellow= Baron, blue = Stars, green = Cloudbeams, purple = Bad Reputation.
