Anyone got any pics? For an "obscure but ultra classic" I am surprised I can only find 2 single pictures online, and they both seem to be the first pitch.
Trying to get psyched for the send Tuesday!
Don't worry, I'll bring some pics back :)

I hope these are informative & build the psyche. Definitely one of my favorite pitches. I lieback the end of the crux, although many people I know straight-in it. If you are okay running out a long 5.7 hand traverse on a flake, the large gear in unnecessary.
The formation. You can see the splitter to the left of the dark water streaked rock.
The second pitch:

such a slog- but a truly fine route
try the third pillar to sol linkup, you can drop right in on top of it..
helps to have 2 cars

Good Question...
|
|
When I was up there a few years ago there was some terribly close rockfall that missed us at the base and it was a real challenge to try and outrun some of those blocks.
Not sure how solid that whole area is now, but do be careful up there!
