Bolted in 2001 and worked on by a number of people Vince finally worked out the cruxes. This route goes on and on. Despite the knee bars that allow numerous rests you are working the whole time. Two cruxes, one low and the very sequential and harder high crux lead to forty feet of less overhanging 5.11 to finish the route.
Location
This route starts the same as Orifice Politics but busts out right following a thin seam at the small roof just right of a big vertical rail.
You gotta love the various names given some moves. Mary Poppins, half Poppin. Miko Bar, replaces Euro Foot .aggotry, Head and Shoulders, Dorito, Fred Nicole. Now if I could only put them all together.
Inspiring sends, amazing indeed, and I got to watch them both. :-) Congrats!!
Since I am not american, I had to look up "tat" and this is what wikipedia says: "Thematic Apperception Test or TAT has been amongst the most widely used, researched, and taught projective psychological tests. Its adherents claim that it taps a subject's unconscious to reveal repressed aspects of personality, motives and needs for achievement, power and intimacy, and problem-solving abilities."
Chicken wing is what I got with my left arm while in the head and shoulders rest. Tat is what we removed when we started working on this route last year. Chicken shit is how we feel the first day back at the Orifice wall. Couped up is how we feel when mother nature calls in a big way and we need to get off the ledge in a hurry. Wow what a great name Vince. I think you have a knack for this.
