Dihedrals have sucked in alot of free soloists with a false sense of security. Bachar's onsight of Moratorium being one of the gnarliest.

Great Photos folks!
Thanks for taking the time to post them.
So per discussion upthread???
In the 1970's I figured out: dihedral=corner=open book, and if you were trying to impress your peers or were in the Alps you used dihedral??
Will you show us the difference-----or not?

The Great Arch is lots of fun, but man your back starts to ache by the 3rd pitch.

The Great Arch would be a mega classic if it were a good 10 degrees steeper. Now the arete on top of the arch, "Bombay Groove/Yankee Go home" is a classic!
