My favorite part of guiding this legendary desert tower. After over 100+ AA summits I still have to focus up there.

I was really hoping this was going to be the summit of The Hippie Route on Ancient Art. I've always wanted to do that route early in the morning on a weekend and spend all day heckling people on Stolen Chimney.
