First pitch of Fingertip.

Messing around on the third pitch of Fingertrip

First pitch of Fingertrip

A look down at the polished granite (and my irregular shadow) of the slabby left finish.

Climbers topping out on Fingertrip (viewed from near the true summit). This is the 5.4 slab finish. To get here, head up and left from Lunch Ledge toward a tree and then up to a single bolt.

Mark Pierson past the 1st pitch crux and nearing p1 belay on Finger Trip.

Black totem placement for the 5.1 exit pitch.

Looking back at Mark Pierson on the last pitch of Finger Trip.

1st time climbing fingertrip on May 16, 2013! @ Lunch Ledge after leading the 1st and 3rd pitch. Super stoked!! WOOHOOO!!

Looking up at the route. P3 climbs the undercling roof that traverses from R to L at dead center. Then climb through the veggies to Lunch Ledge at the level of the top of the tree in the upper left corner.

The fantastic first pitch of Fingertrip.

Exposure on P2

Reckless soloist with approach shoes on very "loose" blocks of P1.

Crowded belay station.

start of the second pitch leading to the under cling arch!

Looking down the dihedral nearing the top of P1. The 5.8 variation follows the thin fingercrack lieback up the dihedral and the original 5.7 follows the slanting crack to the left. Do the lieback :)

Zack trying out the options near the top of first pitch. I had stayed on the right had dihedral.

cheesin' at the second (not great) belay after the traverse

Friction top out.

Naptime on Lunch Ledge

climbing up pitch two past the traverse

Pitch 4 finish. Easy slab section but a bit runout until you get to the small tree. There is an orange bolt soon after.

In the middle of the slab
