Here is a trip report from my first trip up DHLA in Oct.2003 with Mr. Peru: LINK

Industrious!

 

Great photos; I see you got your pano.

 

It certainly was busy up there, looked like a ladybug hatch:

ITW rockfall aficionados can see where the original P2 of Town Crier, which now litters the forest below, used to be.

 

This is a crop; full res on request.

Yes, I took a brazillion photos. Compare your photo of yester-year to mine from today(well, this past Sunday). Obviously I need to get a little closer in to reproduce the angle exactly.

In my opinion, it is the best 5.10 climb in Washington. Best I've done, anyway.

 

It is a "linkup" in name only. Nobody has probably climbed the finish of Davis Holland as it was was originally done for 20 years or more, and ALL parties who complete the route do so via Lovin Arms. We maintain two separate names for historical reference only and, perhaps, the fact that many parties bail after the first three pitches.

Prolly because I'm such a newb, but this link up is by far the funnest thing I've done to date. What is better?

I did it about ten years ago. It was mossy.
