this would make a good caption thread image.

Wow! Let's see some more Sea of Dreams FA photos!

El Cap summit after Bermuda Dunes - 4th ascent




Wee-Wee, Tom and I replaced a bunch of old rusty 1/4-inchers

Too much stuff? No worries for me - I just leave it for my partner. Kate finishes cleaning one of my pitches on the Ranch - in the dark.

I swear those Swedish dudes look like the Allman Bros.
Duane was none too happy about the theme of this shoot.
Look at the stank eye he is giving the photographer.

We racked at the base, climbed, and then de-racked at the summit.

It somehow seemed logical that if we arranged our stuff JUST RIGHT, it would weigh less on the way back down to the car.

Either that, or we wanted to procrastinate and waste time, delaying the inevitable East Ledges descent.
