Ambrosia Buttress as seen from the approach.
Eric leading; the pitches were pretty runout.
Emiko following; note the lack of protection.

Eric leading the third pitch.
Emiko following the last pitch--it offered no pro (fortunatly it wasn't difficult).
Nice views from the summit.
Eric thoroughly enjoying the summit.
After the climb we descended and drove up the road; after a few miles we found a great (free!) campsite.
Emiko actually lost her mind, I think it was all that runout slab climbing; itll rot your brain.
Tired. Time for bed.
