Anyone know how much sun Higher Aspirations on Higher Cathedral Spire is getting? Trying to fit in a wall this weekend, but not cook myself in the heat.

NW.
It gets morning shade, and some afternoon sun (from around 1pm to 3pm at least).
I have photos from 2007-06-19 showing:
 12:30pm all of NW face in shade
 2:45pm all of NW face in sun
 3:15pm lower 300' in shade from Higher Cathedral Rock; upper part in sun.
Watch out for a bit of poison oak on the approach trail, about 500' below the base.

Bosque said that HA was a great route. Being untraveled, it would probably be a BIG weekend!

Mr T I sent you a pm.
