The last pitch we did. At the two bolt anchor up there we started rapping back down the route using a 70m plus a tagline.
The views of the back canyons are pretty nice!

The views of the back canyons are pretty nice!
Pitch 4.2: lots of air, on a well-protected and moderate route.<br> <br> Burt Lindquist and Idan Peretz
Pitch 11 (Handren).
The approximate line of descent is shown in black.
Jonny just about to enter back into the chimney. Pitch 6 from Doug Hemken's beta. We both felt this chimney pitch was the crux pitch of the route. <br>
The beautiful slanted tree, and a bit of pocketed, varnished sandstone at the base of Birdhunter Butress. <br> <br> 10/21/09
A nice place to gear up for Birdhunter Buttress, or to take a nap is at the big, slanted tree. Due to the long approach, and adventure-like climb, you'll most likely have the route/area all to yourselves. : )
Pitch 2 (Handren). We linked this with Pitch 1.

The first 3 pitches of "Bird Hunter Buttress," showing both the main belays and intermediate stations.
A tree anchor before the high chimney pitch which felt like the crux.
