FKT gate-to-gate on Cosmic Space Dust Lasers. 48 minutes, 15 seconds. Can you beat it?

Rough topo. Photo taken from near the mouth of the canyon. If you're feeling particularly energetic, head on over to Squawstruck once you top out on this thing.<br>

The first pitch is hidden behind the ridge in the photo.

To whoever was about to summit CSDL on May 29th, 2021 here ya go.

Me leading the first pitch, extend everything with runners

Descent info. Out of frame, you top out P9 far right. From there, walk along the ridge and towards Trilogy Buttress. We went to the right of that small overhang formation and up

How to find the start of P4. Go up the gully to the left at the top of P3 and follow this trail and you'll be directly at 2 bolts above head height in the moss

Me cheesing fter the first 7 pitches and before the last 2 pitches.

Toppin' the 2nd pitch

Almost the top of the third pitch on March 8th 2014. Super fun route. Third pitch is lots of fun.

Going down on pitch 3 or 4 not sure

View from the top of pitch 7

Parker leading the 2nd pitch.

View from the bottom of pitch 4 (I think?)

A bit closer view of the last pitch.

View of easier from top of pitch 7 (try to avoid the bushes unlike what I did)

The top of pitch 3 westward view

Night climbing was fun

a view of thr 4th class pitch from above. get to the bolt, mantle then get creative with your rope placement. run between rocks and be sensitive to your fall line and you'll stay protected.

Happy belayers make for happy climbers
