The First Ridge

This really is a great climb. Unfortunately these photos don't do it justice. There are sections where you get to traverse a knife-edge ridge that is three feet wide. The drops on either side are several hundred feet in places. It's intimidating and very frightening at first, but you get used to it quickly and it becomes quite exhilarating. The ridge is the long curved arête, which cuts across the middle of this photo.
