Kris is placing a 5/16" bolt with a hand drill while hanging from a hook on a thin edge. Rachel McCollum looks on. This is during the F.A. of The Gold Standard at Courtright Reservoir. Photo by Jan McCollum, Oct. 1993.

Re: My Arm Hurts...

Actually I recall it was my foot that was killing me, standing in that aider in a tight rock shoe, toe jammed hard against the face... When you're on a dicey hook you can't get too wild swinging the hammer. Just kind of tap away patiently while your foot goes numb.

I'm with Rachel

Something I'd rather watch than do, which is mostly how I feel about climbing these days...
