It doesn't....

...look low angle to me. That slack on the rope makes it look even more challenging ;)

Cool shot!

Thanks for stopping by Kris!



Shirley likes a loose belay on slabs as a tight rope will knock off 2 grades from the rating :)

Has Shirley lead any of those smooth slabs? Just curious.

No not yet. Though she should as she seems to perform better on those than I :)
