Awesome multipitch!!
This thing is just awesome!! It is simply epic. Second pitch brings it. Make sure you have at least two #2's for the perfect hand jam at the end. The reward-an unbelievably perfect view of the gorge at the summit. The rrg site actually has a pic of a guy proposing to his girl here...perfect.

Gonzo for Bonzo
Easily the prettiest climb I've climbed at The Red. Great second pitch. Bottom pitch is an old-school 5.6.

1st multi pitch
Nice layback on 1st pitch. 2nd pitch seemed harder than 5.6 rating. Great view from top!
