Went to do the Regular route on Fairview Dome but there was a slow party ahead of us so went over to Stately Pleaseure Dome and got on Great White Book.

Great White book is rated 5.6R. There was definately a R Section. The 3rd pitch was somewhat of a chimney. You hands and feet were on one side and your back against the top. It was very low angle but was about 100 feet of no gear. The didn't get any gear in on the pitch. I made it to the belay anchors but kept going till I ran out of rope. After the chimney was some runout slab climbing, and I hate slab climbing.
