Sounds like a good shake down cruise, now you are ready for the send.
Those awkward pitches above Dinner ledge are the bane of many wall babiez, no shame in being a little slow there.
Next Time: go as light as possible with the haul bag. Every gram of energy saved hauling makes it more likely you have it left to go for summit glory. :)
Bailing on your first Yosemite wall is a time honored tradition. I made it two pitches up Zodiac and came down. My one piece of advice from your TR is to ditch the dehydrated food and bring the good stuff. Either way you're bringing the water with you.
Thanks for all the positive feed back guys. It was such a sick experience being up there! Ill be sure to keep you guys posted next time I climb it and top it out!!
