Didn't even need the hint. That's the decent from the lower Yosemite Falls (5 Open Books? Whatever it's called) area.
Or at the very least: it is the descent route that we used when we did Commitment/Munginella.
edit : should have read the whole thread before posting to see that it'd already been guessed! Oh well!
Nope, not the Fat Stick. Its in the middle of the Nears. And not as difficult as it looks.
In fact, when this picture was taken (note the #11 hex) this route was rated 5.6

I think the pic is remarkable for the huge rack dangling off his sling. How old is it, actually?
