My inflatable doll and I were Couple of the Year last year. But she snagged on a rock while belaying me and rocketed away in a flatulant huff. Sob sob. I'm so lonely.

Looks pretty tiring since it looks perfectly vertical. No time to rest on the way up on a ledge or anything like that?

It was tiring for me (rested on gear here and there) but if you just have a tad more endurance in the forearms, you can crank about 40-50 feet of hand crack and catch your breath on a good stem rest just above crux. Then there's a good ledge above that before the final .9 fist crack (~10-15 foot) to the belay.



Having tried a "thin hands" 10c climb just this past weekend, I can say that this "10c" was a LOT MORE reasonable for me!!

Thanks for stopping by.

... a really cool shot. The foreground shoe and background road really give it some nice perspective.

BonesawVery cool shot!

Voted 10/10

Love the placement of the road and shoe in the frame... kind of a point-counterpoint thing going on there. Nice work and thanks for sharing!
