The kids, ...I, I mean old guys 'n Crimpie,
Waddling across the iconic bridge over South Boulder Creek toward Red Garden Wall:
Mr. Munger and Crimpie got the head start,
Having soloed up the fourth class to a point where Mike started doing rope tricks:
(Chiloe and I were bringing up the rear, climbing the fourth class in some sort of bizarre fully roped up mountaineering style below)
At some point the climbing had to begin,
And so it did, on the standard first pitch:
If you had Crimpie on the end of your line, you'd be smiling too !

Mike Munger heading in to the choice phat crack of Ruper proper:

Meanwhile Chiloe heading up the first pitch on his lead:

Well-informed and well apprised of the situation,
Here's the details on the local location:
The pictures up to this point take as to the belay atop page 2,
After completing the right facing corner,
Visible near the bottom of the topo, where it says: .8 & 5"

The birds eye view from atop pitch two,
Out across South Boulder Creek to Peanuts wall:
Down out across Red Garden Wall into the Bastille:
Looking straight down into South Boulder Creek:
