We left camp at 0840h with another beautiful day. We arrived to the climb before any sun was hitting it. This and the wind made for a cold start. The highlight of the climb were the two pitches above Surfs Up ledge. Fortunately Pat and I are slowly getting used to climbing granite and cracks by now. Since these two pitches had a great hand and fist crack running all the way up with no features on the wall to grab onto. A nice pure crack line!
