Correct! Damn, that was fast!
It's soooo distinctive looking if you've ever done it. And after all, it's only about 20 minutes from my house (depending on how well I time the lights on Wasatch Blvd.)!
Quote: Is that the Great Dihedral that requires "houdini like moves" to complete the crux?
Including Winter-thin stemming (this is 5.9?) and thinner gear right over the belayer (please don't fall, please don't fall), before that exposed, trap-door escape hatch out to the beautiful dihedral. What a route!
Is there still fixed gear at the crux making it a spurt route?
At least the climber should be unrecognizable. Give a camera to the 3rd person, and one hopes for something other than the uber-classic butt shot! But no.....
