攀登 in Needles as Clean

Backed off after pitch one because of spitting rain and rumbling thunder.

Inelegant chimney for most of the route, but the face moves at the top are great.

The two crux sections (stepping across the void after the first belay and then some thin face moves a little farther on) are well- protected, meaning that the climb is truly enjoyable.

Nice climb to the summit of Old People's Dome. Great view of the Conn Diagonal. Bring a set of nuts - bolts are far apart.
