Outer Space

Cranking through the route crux on pitch 3 of Outer Space - a diagonalling 5.9 hand crack traverse with poor feet. In the photo I'm almost out of the difficult terrain. Note the red bail sling on the right. If you head straight for it from the "Two Tree Ledge" below, you'll hit some relatively difficult terrain (though have seen at least one party breeze thru. this variation w/o issues). Starndard start to the pitch starts on the left with a few easier (5.8+) moves (July 4, 2005).
