Great fun!

Rope-solo ascent using a Soloist. Great cracks down low, fun face higher up. Sure wish I'd had time to then continue on up to Traveler Buttress...

Way overbolted...

The 1st bolt is 2 feet left of a good crack. The last bolt is 2 ft right of another good crack. The 3rd bolt is the only one nice to have on this route.
Don't forget to bring some pro along! It's another 75 feet to the anchors - and one of the trickier spots is getting up onto the slab right under the rap anchor...

From the 2nd bolt and on up, this route is the same as "Osterland"...

Quite cool!

Interesting combo of crack and chimney, with a crux atop that gets your attention...

Fun, if you don't mind the huge runout

Fun line on clean granite. Found some pro off to the right though probably only 2 pieces on the whole route were really any good. Good route for slab rats...

Interesting

Actually, a interesting little slab route; yes, there's moss & lichen - hello, you are climbing outside! I'd rate it 5.7-.
What's really nice is that it gives access to good crack systems above for another 1.5 pitches (see "Beyond Simplicity" & "Onward").

Very nice.

Thin and some dirty cracks down low, but moving into and climbing the flake system is really fun.

Quite enjoyable

The long step up onto the slab will be quite difficult for folks under 5'10" or so...

Short but quite nice...

Great jams down low and good pro there make this for a good first sustained 5.9/9+ crack...
