Found some pics of Hoffman and Finger Rock by a J. Ryan.

Hoffman (wet) looking at SW side.

Nice perspectives from both those photos. @ Finger Rock, is that mostly bird poo or calcification, do you think, under the big roof?

BTW that climb Golden Nugget on Hoffman is one of the best climbs in the Sierras. Gorgeous rock and super duper long, like 200'.

Any topos to be had for Finger? SEKI just mentions it but nothing too detailed. Woundering what has/has not been done?

http://www.summitpost.org/finger-rock/490043 is the best source that is public.

Nurse Ratchet *may* have topos, and certainly knows more about where the lines go.

Would love to see her post up more details.

I'd be up for a Finger Rock trip too.

Is Hoffman in SEKI? I haven't looked.

That is really cool. Glad it didn't get burnt.
