Description
Another great multipitch moderate. A bit cleaner than Paparazzi Pete, and I love climbing on the jagged limestone.
P1 & 2 (5.9) 55m: Start on the first two pitches of Paparazzi Pete. Use the anchor directly at the top of the second pitch unless you have gear, in which case you can move of right about 20 feet and reduce a lot of drag on P3.
P3 (5.9) 25m: Traverse right around a slight bulge and then head straight up on thousands of little black spikes. Kind of a weird step right to the anchors.
P4 (5.10a) 25m: Reverse the weird step back left and continue up a slight corner. The anchor sits under the overhanging corner crack.
P5 (5.10b) 20m: Straight up a slightly overhanging corner crack. Fantastic.

Portland, OR
P1: Wandery, with a tricky crux out of the cavey section (5.9)
P2: Up to the roof and left, try not to pull on detached block (5.8)
P3: Move right to the spiky rock and straight up, short pitch (5.7)
P4: Long and wandery, with some cool moves broken up by ledges (5.9)
P5: The business. Crack climbing with face holds. Too short! (5.10a)
Saw a bolt above the P5 anchor, though didn't venture up so couldn't speak to what the topout rappel situation would be. Sep 13, 2016
