All anchors are good now
A few updates and additional beta for the route:
• The top of ALL pitches now have great new solid anchors.
• The anchors at the top of pitch 3 are on the south-west side of the large bolder at the top of the chimney (they are very hard to find if you don't know this)
• Bring a large cam for pitch 4. I didn't have one big enough, but wished I did. Pitch 4 is the shortest pitch (90 feet).
• Aside from P4 this climb is run-out. If you place a lot of gear then you will experience extreme rope-drag. We had serious drag with very minimal gear placement.
• There are 5 great rappel stations (an extra 1 is halfway down pitch 1). When you rappel, keep in mind where your rope will hang. Leave your rope so that when you pull it you minimize the possibility of your rope sliding into potential hangup spots.
• The pitch 4 anchors are 1,020ft (311 meters) above the siphon draw trail (I brought my rangefinder to get some exact distances).

This climb sucks bigtime!
I consider myself a pretty solid 5.10 climber and this climb kicked my ass. Maybe with proper beta its a 5.9, but I just couldn't figure it out. This thing is way harder than most of the 5.10s I've done. Has anyone else tried this thing?

Back again...
This area can be either a great sneaky place to get away from the crowds, or exactly the opposite. Still worth the time hike over here.

Confidence builder!
If you are just getting to 5.10, then this one will push you. The crux is well protected at the top, and a great way to test your skills. I loved this climb.

Warm-down climb
Our last climb of the day... OK first lead, other than that, kind of boring compared to Jack-Off just to the right of this one.

Hmm
Maybe a good upgrade to the rock climbing log system would be to allow log entries without needing to record ascents?
