Haydar down-leading a section...

Haydar down-leading a section of the NE ridge on the descent. This is a small gendarme along the narrow section of the ridge. Great views of the Pickets in the background. This was the only section that we downclimbed (simulclimbed). The rest was rappelled. (August 14, 2005).

This should make photo of the week!

In addition to being one helluva shot, it's been a while since the trophy had visited the PNW ;)

Re: This should make photo of the week!

Hey - I just saw this!! Sorry about that! Thanks for the complement, although I have seen much better shots here on SP. Still, I agree, we need to get more NW shots on POW!

Grand!

Great shot on a classic route. Our group was struck by lightning (not direct, but first of 3x) at this same point. The rest of the way was "how fast can we get down without killing ourselves!."
