First Flatiron Climbing 6/23/2007

The First from along the approach trail.

Me leading the third (crux) pitch.

Carl following the third pitch.

Me belaying the fourth pitch.

Me leading the fifth pitch (the first pitch along the ridge).

Carl climbing the ridge. The climbing along the ridge is very easy (just walking at times) but the setting is spectacular. Boulder is the city you see in the background; the red buildings are the CU campus.

Me on the ridge.

Me pulling the 5.7 roof variation onto the summit.

A view to the south of the other Flatirons.

Looking out over Boulder from 1000 feet up.

A nice panoramic view of the First, Second, and Third Flatirons (numbered from right to left).
