He combined the first two pitches together.

The route is great fun and good protection.

I am leading with gear and bolting as I climb. A very difficult pitch with bolts. I even grabbed a shrub called Mala Mujer, with toxic spines to hold my jam.

A difficult section in the center of the climb may knock me out of contention for the fa.

Estevan Rangel walks up it.

North side of Mt. Lemmon are many domes and walls. This view is from Catalina State Park.

Easy pitch to gain the summit of the spire

She followed me up the first pitch. It was named after her forty years ago and this is her first ever outdoor climb!

Getting into the crux crimps

the routes currently there

Great climb

Estevan getting it done. Went left...

Starting up the east face of the Totem Pole. A great fun route. Gets steeper and harder at the end and stays in your face the last quarter!

Ready to be lowered off the new route on the Totem Pole, Pathological Optimist.

I was lucky enough to get on this while Aaron was there.

Another Burcham addition to Sedona. Great route.

The warm up climbs were all steep and wove through tufas.

Can you see the jaguar?

A good rest on the route

He's busting out the crux

The entry to Dos Bocas is at the Grutas parking lot.

Kind of cruxy overhanging hands to wide above. Nice rock.

This was the mental crux, runout squeeze, classic. Nice lead Brian!

Brian Burgess cruises first pitch difficulties.

The route is visible from the TT and EE trail junction. Wide with pride!

Looked good at the crux

Hot Line is above him.

The first pitch is shady.

Ewephoria with a finish on TTTD with a drop off an edge, 100' to her right. Then the rest of the 1,000' dome.

Another quartzite area in central Arizona.

Crux moves then a juggy roof to end it all.

The second pitch widens a bit.

Start of TD is overhung but quickly becomes gold camalots and wider.

He's almost done.

He's not even close to the pro and he is near the slab crux.

Looking at jumping off to my right if this didn't work.

Need to put a bolt in was the consensus.

Kole leaves belay

The crack was a bit dusty but he came through ok.

The climbing is fun and thoughtful and protection ok. We cleaned above and it may be a bit dusty.

We are standing above a long slab to the ground. The pro is thin and on soft rock. Needs a bolt.

This line is great. Nice rock and good protection. It gets wide but at the roof it becomes a jug haul.

Second pitch of Tasmanian Devil 5.10+ requires stamina and a variety of technique.

Tasmanian Devil is a new route by Jake Dayley. We did the third ascent but it awaits an onsight.

We camped at the bottom of the south face.

I just finished pitch 5; harder and scarier than it looks. The traverse across would have been better if we had moved the belay onto the ledge.

Getting a nearly alpine start. We began just behind me where the shrubs meet the ground. Wonderfully steep slab, cracks, canalones, dihedrals, etc. Which is why it got its name, "The Everything Route"

I'm following the ninth pitch; the canalones are visible below.

Crux 4th pitch. Spacey bolts and square cut corners of the canalones made me glad to follow it.

On the third pitch I went left up a "classic" crack instead of a grassy 4th class looking thing. I definitely went the wrong way and ran it out a bit.
