From Bonniesp1 belay. Close, its taken on rappel from Ant's Line man, and I thought that would be hard dev Long lens makes it tougher because it compresses stuff. _________________________

Took a few falls there...hehe. Used to be a nice pin to fall on, IIRC. _________________________

Look at the lichens, the pebbly conglomerate, the angly roofs. Plus, Talus knoze the rulez (it is in the Gunks routes section...) Thought It might be White Rose after the traverse into the crux corner, but its been a while (20 years!) since I've been on it. Hard 11ish (masquerading as a ten) _________________________
