Ascent Note
A great way to finish off Airwaves and top out on the Glass. Pitch one is steep, with a few hooks and pin stacks. Pitch two is super long but goes to the trees. Replaced two head on pitch two, but watch out for the old rusty cables.

Ascent Note
I lead P2 which is moving on a single row of #1 copper heads. This pitch is 80 degrees but you will be in your top steps the whole way to avoid adding heads. Near the top the pitch rolls back, you move up your aiders and actually stand in the eyebrows to get the next placement.
