Overlay for Myster Z + Armatron = A Fun Day!

A herd of speed climbers, below the Brownstone Wall.

From the approach trail. The blue area is the part of Jackrabbit you need to get to. You do NOT need to enter the canyon!

Greg standing in front of MysterZ with marked belays + info.

Looking up at options for p4/5 from the p3 (3rd class) scramble. The left yellow (original) route is p4/5 and can be linked to the left end of the traverse with a 70m. We got to a cove about 10ft below the roof crack on the green (alt) route w/ a 70m.

Looking at the start of "Mystery Z". you have like a 1 minute to be at the base from here

Scramble to the top of the formation toward the Brownstone Wall. Great views and a great day!

Pitch 5. Do not go left (straight), but traverse right under the large roof on easy terrain to the black crack.

Looking up at Pich 5. I thought the start of this pitch was a bit exposed with little gear. Be solid at the grade. A fall on this pitch would not be good!

Looking up at the 1st pitch of MysterZ from the base

looking down at the upper portion of Pitch 6.

Start of MysterZ - Interactive 360°: https://go.ibex.fit/mp

Looking up at the finishing ramp of Pitch 2. Belay at the top before crossing the 3rd class traverse. We shortened Pitch 1 and Pitch 2 so we ran up this ramp and across the traverse in one pitch (we had 3 feet left on our 70 meter rope.

This would be the top of what I believe is the intended pitch 1 belay.

Looking up at Pitch 7. The last pitch of technical climbing.

Top of route. The base of Brownstone Wall is about 5 minutes away. Climb Armatron if you have time!

Shows the Pitch three traverse to the tree below the Pitch 4 crack. Shows the Pitch 4 belay and the start of Pitch 5.

Looking down from the top of the intended Pitch 1. This looking down from above the first pitch ceiling / Chimney.

View of the Rainbow Wall from the top of the formation. Awesome!!!

Brownstone wall as seen from the top of MysterZ. Can you spot the climbers?

The moves over the bulge on pitch 6 of MysterZ. A second climber can be seen far below crossing the third class slabs on pitch 4.

Scamble down into Juniper Canyon and back to the base of the climb.

looking up at the roof crack from the belay at the top of the 70m pitch 4/5 variation. rope coming in from the left was a party who did the regular route across the "exposed traverse"

Looking down on the easy scramble from the top of MysterZ

This is looking down half way up Pitch 2.

Case starting the walk-off towards the brownstone wall and down the 3rd class slog back to the canyon entrance
