In the thick of it on P3 of Kor-Ingalls route. Note the interesting rock on this pitch: sandstone covered in whitish calcite deposit (looks like sugar glazing....or like puke according to my wife :). The calcite is relatively hard but the calcite holds get polished to glass-like smoothness by repeated use. Second piece of pro in this picture is the lowest of three bolts (December 25, 2004).

Moab but no biking?

Looks like a tough crack climb, great colors and all your other pictures are very scenic. Impressive stuff, sure beats the ice skiing here in OR :-)
