Not my photo from Tyler Logan Aug 7, 2008 on mountain project
Hey Tyler, nice photo. I'll remove your photo at your request. dovalonso @ the-big-gmail.
This is the only pitch (?) on this whole thread that I managed to lead clean. But hey, it's only 5.7. He he he , ha haaaa HAAAAA. Spoiler beta alert: I did it the way this climber (Jose) did, not as a straight jam. Just an interesting fyi: TM Herbert and Gordon Webster, June 1965, FFA: Phil Bircheff & Jan Ebeltoft, July 1969 . I was proud to get up this pitch, but following the first pitch was unpleasantly thin an desperate for me, and the chimney (my strength!?) pitch totally cooked me.
I would so love to try Cenotaph Corner, but those days are probably be behind me.
