Climbers with smaller hands/feet may find liebacking easier than jams on Right Sawdust Crack. Here Lara struts her stuff.- 7 May, 2005

Voted 10/10 | ...it's a major pain for us too:
My ideal hand crack size = #2 to #3 Camalot
My wife's ideal hand crack size = #0.75 to #1 Camalot
:)
Great shot Dirk! | | Posted May 12, 2005 5:05 pm |

Voted 10/10 | That's hilarious. Most people I know can't even get a good fist jamb on a #3 Camalot, let alone perfect hands! That offwidth just got a whole lot easier! | | Posted May 12, 2005 6:01 pm |

Voted 10/10 | I was not doing well on #.75-#1 Camalot "thin hands" cracks of Jah Man. For me it was impossible (for a while only I hope) off-fingers crack (my wife had easier time).
I find #3.5 camalot to be a decent fist sized crack.
The new guidebook to Indian Creek has a pretty cool discussion of this stuff :) | | Posted May 12, 2005 7:24 pm |

Voted 10/10 | Yeah, but unfortunately I struggle (read "aid") on what the guidebooks call "thin hands, 9/10a"!!!

Voted 10/10 | So that's why you want to go to Indian Creek this year, a new guidebook! You junkie! :-)
If you like thin hands, try Libra Crack at Index, overhanging #1 camalot with no feet, but only "10a". Ha!!!!!!
#2 Camalot is perfect hands for me. #3 is definately fists, but I'm almost 6'-'4". A 5'-7" friend of mine is armlocking on #3! | | Posted May 12, 2005 10:59 pm |
