In early may, Chelsea Rude and Ron Fundeburke made the first continuous ascent of the entire Central Pillar Direct, with Chelsea leading the crux first pitch (12D), a superb 60-meter face and thin-crack pitch (the crux is led on gear) that joins the standard Central pillar route atop the 2nd pitch. Pitches 6-9 involve marvelous 5.10 and 5.11 climbing up flakes and shallow corners on the open face, including the iconic Fissure Largo on pitch 8, a laser-cut 5.11 splitter up flawless granite. From the top of pitch 8, the route traverses right into an easy crack leading to the U-Shaped Bowl.
