Ascents in Big Gulp Area as various tick types

Thought I had the beta, but foot placement on the layback smear proved to be critical.

Another beta burn.

it's not the mantle. it's the next scary move where I fell and blew the onsight. consider a panic draw to protect the traverse if you got one, or do better beta than I did

First time ever trying to lead

Fun with a challenging mantel to end. Currently a decently sized bees nest to climbers left at third last bolt.

Interesting moves.

Quite easy until the last 10 feet. Lots of ledges to stand on as you plan your next moves.

Failed to climb past the last bolt below the anchor. Good line, but some pinching needed at two bolts below the anchor. The rope rubs a lot when lowering to clean: we found it easier to leave the first (or two) pieces in when lowering, and then climbing on top rope protection to clean that piece out.

Missed the blind move right, otherwise no problem.

The first bolt hanger came off and needs replacement.

Dogged it in three sections, thanks to beta from Chris. Great route; definitely a challenge.

laughable -- kept getting my fingers temporarily stuck in the traverse crack between the 1st and 2nd bolts
