Me on the chossy "Lightning Pyramid" - UN 13,631 traverse

[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]

Me on the chossy traverse from "Lightning Pyramid" to UN 13,631. I had just climbed down the manky dihedral feature above me. Loose rock is a signature of Colorado's beautiful Elk Mountains. August 2007.

	Hasn't voted	Guilty as charged... I have a bad habit of not wearing my helmet as much as I should. I'm getting better about it though, I swear.

Awesome profile pic! I need to get up those choss piles this summer. That is a nasty looking dihedral!

Impressive downclimb with no gear. I'd be worried about having one of those big blocks take me with it.

	Hasn't voted	Thanks. We too were worried about that. It was a very slow and careful process.
