After Will and I climbed Everlasting, it was my turn to step it up a bit, so I got on Mystic and the Mulchers (5.8-).  Like other climbs on the Northeast Buttress, Mystic starts out as a walk and just gets steeper and steeper.  The crux was supposed to be a steep bulgy face climbing section protected by a bolt near the end, but I thought that part was easy.  For me the crux was the section you see Will in here where the rock really starts to steepen but offers little in the way of hand or foot holds.
