8th grade history teacher Allen Burch was probably a wee one himself when Hong and Webster found the flake traverse on p.3 of the Movable Feast.

Photo of MSV showing the line and belays starting with pitch 2, and basically following Bob D's description. We did a minor amount of simul-climbing on pitch 3 using a 70m rope (as shown by where we belayed), but this was probably not necessary. We did link pitches 6 & 7 in Bob's description fairly easily, ending on the big ledge of Stoned Oven. Definitely possible to link the Womb Fight with the final short pitch to the rim. We climbed this in 9 pitches, but 8 would have been very reasonable.

Nothing else like it anywhere, and if there is, I don't want to see it.

BETA! Do not climb the huge dihedral! Route finding is tricky. There should be a horn slung with old webbing, that is where you should build a belay for the traverse. allow plenty of time for the approach, as it is at the opposite side of the wall from the gully.

Doug Sinor leading up pitch 2 (5.10 bulge). It is best to set the first belay right below the bulge and after the .6 crack.
