Second ascent by:
Cleaning Practice...
Last climb of the weekend, and last climb of a rainy day. We were supposed to 3-pitch Stone Depot, but storms cut our day short. We ended up working on trad anchor building technique all morning and climbed the first pitch of Sundial where I practiced lead belay, cleaning, and set up the rap for our group.
I'm new, but I'm hooked! :)

the round-about way
partner got a bit lost on the way to the crack, so I ended up finding out how much harder eyebrows are to (solo) downclimb after retrieving the gear from his high point and rejoining the route. Rappelled in a thunderstorm. Fun fun.

Short Crack
Lead the 1st pitch, VERY windy day.Book shows slight right to 2nd belay, more like a 45 degree angle.Crack is good w/ several #1 size cams, used gear belay at 3rd about 120' from start of crack ( fairly even to the old rings at the parking lot.) P4 is more like 5.6
