Sonora Pass wide!
This angle makes this look easy. In reality it's an awful flare (flared out and down) that wants to spit you out the whole time.

Lets pretend that we never saw that!
In hopes of redemption
And to return to the original topic
The Climb "beak Crack" as it is known by some,
is on a privately owned cliff in Byram, Nj,
It is visible from Rt206 , about ten miles past Waterloo Rd.
(Where the area now Called Allamuchy is located.)
It is most interesting because there is a line of rusting 1/4 inch bolts on roughly made home-made hangers that are placed straight up into the horizontal roof arms reach from the crack.
The hangers were stamped with a 'T''K' -I've tried to Find Tye Kneff
as I'm almost sure they are his and/( or Jim Kalakotronis's,?) handy work, from before 1975(?)
That thing is hard & wide.
I am young!
Those were the days !
I am seen stuffing everything I can in, elbows deep - legs flailing,
trying to get a foot under me to push up.
There's 20 more feet of climbing still to come.
I'm up to my elbows trying, . . working on the 5/6 inch tube chock
(that may still be there?),
