action & shotsGreat shot and great action!
What kind of rock is it (arenaria?)and how is to climb on it? Do you use camelot or just nuts?

Re: action & shotsThank you very much.
This is called "Wingate Sandstone". Rock is very smooth and cracks are generally nearly parallel making nuts pretty useless on most routes. Camming units are the norm (LOTS and lots of camming units since many routes will stay the same size for the entire length). The line in the photo I think took 1 or 2 #2 Camalots, ~6 #3 Camalots and 1 #3.5 Camalot I think.
