I'd love to see Tempest pics. I'll probably never get on a route that tough, but love to see pics none the less. (Plus the supertopo name 'Sir Loin of Leisure' is one of the best on this site).
Cheers,
Doug

Kirk,
He might still wear those. He did a few years ago.
Sir Loin, You have any of those waterfall pics? That was an interesting day.

I think I can claim the distinction of suggesting the name, "rain of terror" after hearing the story of that incident.
