Shame about all the bolts. Protecting it naturally is easy and fun and adds nothing to the difficulty or commitment.

Karsten does a poor Jean Claude Van Dam impression on the 3rd pitch.

My brother leading the sick line up p3. It may appear that his pieces are inches apart, but he is probably 30-40 ft off the belay here.

Leading easy 1st pitch

Traffic jam trying to get down.The climbing party of five (!) was actually a little more annoyed with us (party of 2...) than this photo lets on.. nothing like a selfie to break the ice... or whatever

The Nightcrawler climbs the right side of the Hourglass.

Inside the Pitch 2 chimney. "Face Los Vegas" was Jorge's advice.

Top of P5 anchor - new bolt added. (Observed Oct 2025) Thanks to whoever put in the work to make this anchor safer!

New rap anchor left of p1 makes the descent easier with one 70m rope. Thanks to whoever make this improvement!

Pitch 1.

The p5 anchor… two old, not too rusty bolts backed up with a small nut. The tat did seem relatively fresh. A fun pitch but maybe bring some extra tat just in case.

Don't skip P5! Very enjoyable in a different style from the other pitches and I found plenty of good pro.

Pitch 5 bolted anchor (Sept 2015). This one needs a new sling/ring. The bolts are kind of old too.
