fav of the day
A really cool feature below the rap station at the first belay. After that I went straight up and left slightly to top this one out at a small tree. Makes the finish more exciting over a nice exposed bulge. P3? Might have gone too far left.. Was bush whacking through moss and trees.. Scantily protected with a couple #4 stoppers and a small tcu.

Great Single Pitch thru Crux
Used a 60m to link first two pitches, then thru crux, to near-hanging belay at pine tree/rap anchors. Enjoyable, exposed, and solid-pro. Would do the Strictly to Shockley's Ceiling linkup the next time.

fun.
My first lead at the Gunks. Linked together p.1 and P.2, did not do the 5.4 3rd pitch.

Nice happy climb
I think the Oscar link up is much nicer than the regular route.
