i'm stumped.
First I thought it was getting into the wide at the top of the good book, but how would you get that angle?\
The Wilson overhang?
The thing is, I'd swear I've climbed it.

Ding Dong, Yes SewellBra, Atlantis: E on the follow.
JayBra, The OW: Mike Paul following my lead.
The crux is really leaning/overhung and I hang my head, as I laybacked that tiny, hardest bit. Just like I did on Geek Towers, Just like I did on that thing out by the Vector at Josh...
Valley is correct and the angle opportunity is another good clue.

Camp 4 Wall.
Edge of night or Chopper.
I think it's Chopper.
Russ and Dick Might Know-
Ofcourse they hazed me for layin' it back at the crux.

Multi Pitch, Obscure and you are looking at a really neato fist to tight hands bit.

I'm not clear on all the Jaybro fotos here. Is Squat the one with
the white-shirted climber? What about the red-shirted guy?
Also, I can't find the answer to the one from Rhodo-router.
Still up in the air?

Jaybra: Not having done it, but taking a wild guess on the Devils Tower route, I'm gonna say Belle Forche Butress, due to the rightward traverse to gain the crack.
JayBra: No, the left facing corner not Rixons, although it does match that pretty well, with its upper fist pitch in a Left Corner.
Scuffy B: No, we don't have the Rhodo 2nd route yet.

We need some TAGgers to weigh in here for that one. I don't have a scanner, so my continued input on this game is going to have to wait until I go and climb something.
Additional Hint: Ranger is a Menace!

Rhodo,
Your shot of the corner has got to be Alpha Omega at Sunset Rock. Right?? Nice route.
You're right Dennis the ranger is a dick of legendary status.

Roy, Is that the crux pitch of Windfall on the Tower of the Cosmic Gods? I did that w/ EE 2 or 3 years ago. My addled brain cells are saying that's what that big left facing corner is.

Tucked up in that ampitheater, near Widows Tears, I recall.
Cool route too eh?

Hell-yeah that was a great route. I led the first 3 pitches in 1 with a 60 meter rope and some judicious use of long slings. E led the next one, the one in your picture and we had to bail before the final pitch(a .10c thin hands rig that looked great. I'd go back there anytime.

Mark-- right on! excellent eye. I made up the Chattanooga 'Yosemite Training Circuit', but this route gave me the idea. Others: The Cob, Days' Work, maybe Walk in the Park...
