No fair

You make this look steeper by the orientation of the photo. The angle is more accurate with it rotated 90 degrees :-P This pitch was rather anti-climatic after viewing this shot!

However, none of the photos on SP (nor mine) could quite capture the coolness of the quartz rock on this pitch. Awesome rock!

Re: No fair

Sorry to disappoint you- I don't think I put that much thought into it when I put it up. It's not super steep. Looking down, though, you can't really present an accurate photo, it could be argued, vs. one taken from behind or from the side. At any rate, I agree- a super fun pitch, plus very unique because of that cool quartz.
