Short but fun.
This is one of the two ways to the top. It can be linked but expect rope drag to be moderate to severe. Beautiful Hood view from the top.

Can't wait for that rock to roll down the hill. I will be sure to be there for FA's.

Second ascent by:
only did first pitch
I did the first pitch in Tennis shoes to clean the route so that we could move onto the other routes so I can't speak to the rest of the route. What I did was pretty dirty and with lots of ledges. I can say that being at French's dome climbing is better than working.
