The first half of the Matthes...

The first half of the Matthes Crest traverse. Pavel is assessing the terrain ahead. If you look close enough, you will see a person standing on a pinnacle after the North summit. In the background you can see (from left to right): Echo Peaks, Echo Ridge, Conness and Cockscomb - July 23, 2005

Re: Alright!

I've heard that Wolf's Head in Wind Rivers is comparable if not a bit easier and shorter. Can't wait to do it someday...

Intolerable

An actual climbing shot as photo of the week? I don't think that we can tolerate this blatant sacrilege.

Re: Intolerable

Hehehe... Frankly, I did not expect it to win at all. If anything, this or that photo from the same series deserve it more. Voting on SP works in a mysterious way :)

Re: Intolerable

Interesting... I would probably throw my vote in with "this" photo, but they're all outstanding!

Re: nice ridge

Thanks Charles. It's a super exposed ridge made of solid and grippy granite. What else can one wish for!??? :)
