I had not yet arrived for the east buttress climb but we did Royal Arches a few days later and I put some pics up on the photo thread. I'm sure Rick will post some when he gets settled.

Big thanks to partner Skip Wolfe who kept morale up while we were slowed way down by the comedy climbing team of Dumb and Dumber ahead of us. Started at dawn and could have easily topped out in daylight. Instead, had to do the last two of 13 pitches in the dark and rapped off the East Ledges Rappels by headlamps and moonlight.
