The Drip Buttress (left) and The Prow (Sept. 2015).

Flathead Buttress (Sept. 2015).

On the hike up to Shoshone Buttress (Sept. 2015).

Starting up the first pitch of South Face on Shoshone Spire. It took us 2 longish pitches (this here 5.7-5.8 & one low 5th class) to reach the Lunch Ledge (Sept. 2015).

Pitch 3 (or first one off the Lunch Ledge) of South Face. Easy cracks to a 5.8 roof pull (Sept. 2015).

Shirley on pitch 3.

Starting up pitch 4 (Sept. 2015).

Views up canyon from South Face on Shoshone. Flathead Buttress is on the left (Sept. 2015).

Leading pitch 4 of South Face – probably the crux with many (flaring crack) options. Just keep aiming for the notch in the left arete (Sept. 2015).

Unknown climber on the final pitch above us (Sept. 2015).

Shirley on the fun pitch 4.

Views down canyon towards the town of Hamilton (Sept. 2015).
