A fun 5.6 scramble route up the NE ridge of Olympus. The route is the obvious skyline route that you see when you're late to get out of Einstein's Bagels with your coffee and bagel.
Scramble to start the day.
Interesting dirt gully.
Noah soloing, Tom roped. Then, Noah clips into a bite in the rope. This technique is unique to our party, and we like it.
Up higher, similar to the west slab route, but steeper and a bit looser.
Close proximity to the urban.
Dreaming of snow on lines yonder.
A fun arete with good moves and nice rock.
Nice flower on your helmet, Tom.
More weeeeeee......
Compare and contrast.
