Climbed on 4/2/21, very solid climbing conditions.  Not "super fat", but still very possible to get good sticks and place screws and protect without any rock gear or pins.

I'm glad someone else "enjoyed" our "useless variation" at the top :D

I also did the "right" exit above the crux that you mention last weekend. I'd never gone that way but recalled the book mentioning it. It was... weird. Not totally clear where to go and we ended up belaying a short section of traversing downclimbing to get onto the finish of the Wy'east route.

Oh that's interesting and unexpected. I think we'll give it a shot next time we are up there as well haha
