Shirley about to be reborn :) as she exits the crux sqeeze section of pitch 1 of Community Pillar. Note the absence of helmet (the rack hitched a ride on one of our twins just moments earlier; Apr. 2, 2006).

Re: For me

:) heh, heh - that's funny how you put it Lorenzo!

I felt sick inside the squeezes too (esp. this first one) but I thought that if I could just get thru. the next squeeze, there'd be more good climbing above :)

Dang, if she had to take off the helmet and get rid of the rack, how did you get through that thing??!! :-)

Re: Tight

I'm not sure actually - it took me close to an hour of fighting once I got going (before than I had a good 4 or 5 failed attempts). Miserable sh.. for me! Stale air, suffocating sensations, desperate smearing of heels & toes against rock; head, chest, then ass getting stuck.
For multiple reasons, I will not repeat this route.
