With all of the photo threads going these days, I thought I’d share some of my favorite wall climbing images to try to help keep this place on track (but I guess we can’t help ourselves from the OT fun stuff…). Hope you enjoy the images. (Apologies to the dial-up-ers.)
Climbers on Zenyatta Mondatta, El Cap, 1997
Roger Strong in portaledge, on the FA of Summerland, Yosemite Falls Wall, 1999

Eric Kohl on the FA of Hurricane Jingus Clusterf*#k 2000, Yosemite Falls Wall, 1997
Eric Kohl on the FA of Sky is Falling, Porcelain Wall, 1998
“Captain Kirk” Bland on Tribal Rite, El Cap, 1999
“Captain Kirk” Bland belaying “The RURP Pitch” on Tribal Rite, El Cap, 1999
I skipped all three lead bolts on this pitch for fun.
Scott Burk on the free variation on the Salathe headwall, El Cap, 1999
Roger Strong on the FA of Summerland, Yosemite Falls Wall, 1999
Eric George cleaning “Agent Orange” on the FA of Strange World, Porcelain Wall, 1999
Eric Kohl on the FA of Sky is Falling, Porcelain Wall, 1998
Eric Kohl on the FA of Max X, Yosemite Falls Wall, 2003
These aren’t the greatest slide scans and I posted these before I knew about adjusting levels in Photoshop.

Wall climbing takes you places you just aren't going to get to, any other way. Though I suspect there are other ways into the infrared spectrum.
thanks!

If I had pictures that nice Id not post em to the public. They're too good. Dialup users will at least get their moneys worth.

Good stuff Bryan!
Thanks for posting those...
Are you gonna identify those for us or keep us guessing?
I get the wall itch just looking at those shots.
