The YDS sometimes isn't very good at pinpointing the hardest bit to lead, the bit you're most likely to fail on. 5.whatever.... pitch 6 is probably E3, pitch 7, E4. Hope that helps.

Hey, thanks for posting up Jonny!
Of course, what you just said makes perfect sense.

looking at the topo I just realized that I linked 6 and 7. That is a rope stretcher using a 60. I actually could not get all the way up to the belay and just kind of had to dig my heals into the dirt ramp and do a butt belay. Perhaps a bit sub optimal

Just looked at a couple of those other threads. It's a pity that Supertopo admin feels that it is necessary to delete every contribution a banned member ever made to a site. Other sites deal with the issue by merely preventing them from posting anything new, which is a much better solution. It would have been nice to read Coz's thoughts on the FA, but oh well.
I was going to post up some historical stuff myself, but I've heard from reliable sources that those who climb, do, those who don't, post. Haha.
Edit. My assuption on Supertopo's policy was wrong. Apparently the default for banned members is to prevent new posts and leave old ones. In Coz's particular case he requested all his posts be deleted, one which ST honored.

I just made a long delayed trip to the Valley. I had my non-climbing family stop at the first El-Cap view. Having climbed the Right-side of the Hourglass (*spray alert*), I caught this image of the over-the-top of Ribbon Falls Amphitheater. What are these climbs, especially the OW?
