I later took the offset out of the incut and used a tension off my daisy to reach a higher point to place a #3 between large cobblestones above and to the left of the incut.

Made this video collection of stills (and some vid) from the gopro footage to grab stills of the placements on the route (pitch 2)

Sick video!  I got sweaty palms the minute you left the belay.

Icarus is harder (less placement opportunities but better rock with thinner nailing and hooking)

Premeditated is scarier (many placement possibilities all of which suck and prob will drop you into a zippering fall of pain)
