The traverse on P3. Thin traverse on minimal pro. I set a belay on the small pillar above and to the right of the bush to avoid rope drag when climbing the roof above. A few loose flakes but otherwise not so bad.

P2. Dow avoided the bush belay and linked this up with the expando chimney pitch. The only downside here is it's difficult to see the leader once in the chimney.
