Hydrophobia - Topping Out

Topping out on "Hydrophobia". I thought this last pitch was the most difficult due to it being so sustained (and 60 metres long exactly), but Greg felt the first pitch was the most difficult. Either way, I was beat by the time I got to the top. The crazy looking mixed climb "Cryophobia" can be seen in the background - it continually melted away in the sun during our climb of "Hydrophobia". (climber: A. Jones, photo: G. Cutforth)

Re: cool

Yes, the climb in the background is pretty impressive; it actually came in pretty fat this year, but by this date is was all but melted away.
