not such a classic link-up..
Was fun doing this after Comittment, but meandering route finding challenges were more tiresome than I hoped.
After the short nose-shaped chimney, look for the bolt and peg on the ledge above. (you dont want to go up the damp notch). You want to traverse left from the bolt on thin flakes, and to a small tree. I would belay here for rope drag. Then go straight up the crack system til you get to the ledge and final unlikely flake.
Watch out for falling rocks!

nice
caught this on my last day, due to crowds on Serenity. Fun roof problem. Linked with Salaginella, which wasnt nearly as good but give a respectable length of ascent. Watch out for falling rocks!

Solo ascent by:
Sweet line, not mungy
Good quality rock and an interesting step under an overlap.

nice evening out
A fun solo, and if you look around on P3, theres some nice alternative cracklines in the upper wall to the left. Good evening sport.

ah, the wideness
My first introduction to valley wideness. Pretty burly and polished for the grade. The view from the ledge at the top of P3 is fantastic. All in all a fine aesthetic line and good day out.
When approaching up the talus, keep going up until you are about level with the base of the climb, or you will risk some serious loose bushwhacking.

improves the further up you get
Watch out for deceptively loose blocks on p1. Test everything. Didnt do the final pitch due to crowds and daylight, but up to there was fun + oldschool for sure.
