Pt 9112 looms in the trees. Is there a weakness?
Getting closer.
A 5th class show stopper on the north ridge of 9112. Downclimbing would not be fun.
I found an easier way below the ridge on broken ledges on the n.e. side.
8er Dog Head from 9112. It looks like we might have to break out the rope on this one!
The next goal for the day is 9er Dome Rock. There's a class 3 route on the other side.
Looking down the class 3 route I found on 9112.
Looking up the weakness on 9112. Crab walking did the trick on the downclimb.

9112 looking mighty fine. I got halfway up the north ridge on right and found a ledge system below it.
