I remember that move, in fact there were three mini cruxes on that last pitch for me. One right off the belay, one in the middle and one pulling into a crack at the end. I was having so much fun on that last pitch! I even did a shoulder smear! Yes, that last pitch is a doozie for sure.

I wonder if you could do it now, Walter broke off a key foot hold and I broke off a key handhold down lower...that whole pitch is so sunbaked the rock is just flaking right off. Still-awesome job on holding it together Dylan. Did you get to do the part around the block on the next pitch? Or the final pitch? Those were both thrilling. Wow Dylan, that is awesome!

I did Right Side of the Block with Bud Gates, and got to do the one-clip slab pitch. Eyiyi! Good overall memories of the route, tho. Sounds excellent!
