I was looking for the Zanderland youtube video of Zander's narrows simulator, when I found this. Looks hard to me.

I believe Chick Holtkamp did some of the those underpass cracks in the Cleveland area in the late '70s, and early '80s.

I used to run into Woody a lot at Hinckley. What a great place! Also, the woman in the '81 photo, was her name Linda? A dancer?
Cams can easily pull out of parallel cement cracks.

Heh, heh lettuce out of an icicle pipe. Yes her name is Linda and she was a dancer don't have any idea what happened to her. Would love to find some way to connect with Woody, the man gave me some pretty profound life lessons that I have stuck with over 30 years and I share with my kids. Laps on Yellow Wall :-). Haven't been back there for way too long

Woefully lacking in style, what I'd expect from Cleveland.
"Practicing" clips on a tr?

One nice thing about climbing there is you get twice as much life from a 60 meter rope....you just cut it in half.

30 meter rope is perfect for there, Mr. Donini. Just the right length to reach those beloved ice cicles. Hueco Boulder anyone?

The Hinckley Heathens used to meet for climbing on Thanksgiving and Christmas days. Man, was it f*ing cold, sometimes. But lot's 'o fun. Great bouldering there, too.

Alas, I was never old enough to actually buy my own beer at Sarge's after a cold bouldering session.
