2 to go. 13b with three bolts traverse to the 12a corner, then 1 more to the top.
From the camera position, the traverse looks more featured and less steep than some of the stuff in the last couple pitches.

If watching these guys climb is like watching paint dry, then watching me climb is likelike watching a 100 million years of erosion.

I was hoping that Tommy could lead the last pitch (seems like he is doing the leading anyway on these last pitches) and could top them out after having the vision to start on this, alone, severn years ago. However, looking at the topo, what's really great is that because it actually "ends" with 40 feet of 3rd class, they'll be able to summit together. Even better.

It's like watching paint dry on a Picasso.
More accurately, it's like watching the painting happen.

Makes sense. Probably leans toward his specialties on the 13 face climbing. Looks slabby.

Feet propped up, watching live stream on the 27" iMac while reading these posts on the iPad.
Best of both worlds!

Sometimes it's drying, sometimes it's in the air, ala Pollock!

As mentioned earlier the angle shooting so high up messes up the aspect. Gotta tilt your head to the left to see it's real steepness.

I'm watching both on my Mac Mini with only 2 gigs of RAM. Having it crash and having to reboot Firefox is part of the drama!
